Medical Insurance

Each year, all full and 3/4 time students must enroll in the qualifying School Health Plan (SHP) or waive the plan and report their own comparable health insurance coverage. All international students at Brandeis are automatically enrolled in the Student Health Insurance. Medical insurance is charged each fall and covers the student for a full year. Students who do not need medical insurance for the remainder of the year after graduation may request a refund for a portion of the insurance through the insurance company.

Employment Opportunities

Students may apply for on-campus jobs at the start of a program, and may apply for Teaching Assistant and Research Assistant positions after being enrolled in their program for at least one semester.
