OPT Insurance
Health Insurance designed especially for
F-1 Students on OPT


Optional Practical Training
Optional Practical Training (OPT) is temporary employment authorization for F-1 International Students to gain practical experience in their field of study. OPT allows Students to apply their academic knowledge in a real-world work setting. OPT can be used before or after graduation, but must be directly related to your major.
As an OPT Student, you may no longer be eligible for your University "SHIP" insurance plan, but may not yet be eligible for your employer's health insurance either. Our OPT insurance plans are designed especially for OPT Students & Dependents and their budgets!
