Students Who Have Insurance Other Than UC SHIP
What services are available on campus if I don’t have UC SHIP?
All registered UCSC students are permitted to use the Student Health Center — even if they have off-campus insurance.
Reminder: The Student Health Center does not directly bill insurance plans other than UC SHIP. If you waive UC SHIP enrollment and use the Student Health Center, you will be personally responsible for paying for that care. Your charges will be billed to your student account. There are some free services available though, check it out!
