New Dental Insurance Plans |
We recently partnered with Ameritas to launch our new dental insurance plans for those who are 18 and older. The plan provides flexibility allowing students to pay monthly or in full.
The dental plan covers students in the US for preventative dental care (dental exams and cleanings), basic dental services (x-rays, sealants and fillings), and major dental services (oral surgery, root canals, gum disease, crowns, dentures). The plan comes in three levels to choose from:
- Value: Budget friendly, maximum benefit $750, preventative coverage starting at 90%
- Access: Family friendly, maximum benefit starting at $1,000, includes children orthodontia and LASIK coverage
- Total: Highest level, maximum benefit starting at $2,000, 100% preventative coverage and includes hearing exam coverage

New Vision Insurance Plans |
Like with the dental plan, our new vision insurance plans are also with Ameritas and offer a monthly payment option.
Students can enroll on their own, or add their family, to ensure that everyone is covered. The vision plan covers students in the US for routine eye exams, contacts, frames and lenses. The plan comes in two levels:
- Select: Budget level, eye exams covered every 12 months with a $25 deductible, lenses and frames covered every 24 months, contacts covered up to $130
- Choice: Elite level, eye exams covered every 12 months with a $10 deductible, lenses and frames covered every 12 months, contacts covered up to $150
