Health Insurance Opt-Out Waiver Instructions

Students who are enrolling in 9 or more credits for Fall or Spring Semester and have compliant health insurance can elect to opt-out of SHIP by submitting a waiver each Fall and Spring semester by the posted deadline.

The official means of MSU Denver Student Insurance communications is via email to the student’s assigned MSU Denver email account. Health insurance email reminders are sent from [email protected] to the student’s official school issued email account.  Please add elev834 email address to your safe senders list to be sure important opt-out waiver reminders are received.  Elev834 is the University approved insurance audit and enrollment software for MSU Denver Student Insurance. 

The Fall insurance waiver deadline was September 6, 2023.  Late waivers should be submitted as soon as possible by following the instructions below.

Please wait 24-36 hours to gain access into the opt-out waiver form after adding classes (totaling 9 or more credits).
