Mandatory Health Insurance Requirement

It is the policy of Cal Maritime to require all enrolled students to maintain Cal Maritime student health insurance or comparable private insurance.  This is due to the special nature of the educational experience at Cal Maritime which includes an international training sea term or international study experience.

If you are currently insured and wish to maintain your current insurance, you must: Request a waiver from purchasing Cal Maritime's insurance plan by completing the online Student Health Services insurance waiver. The deadline to complete the online waiver is September 24, 2025. Please note, it is the responsibility of the student to inform Cal Maritime when coverage changes after any waiver has been granted.
