Medical Insurance
Due to the extremely high cost of health care in the United States, Providence College requires that all students on nonimmigrant visas be covered by the campus medical insurance plan under Gallagher Koster. International students are automatically billed each semester at the time of registration for the PC student medical insurance.
International students may not waive this insurance requirement.
