Insurance Requirement: 

All participants in the J-1 Exchange Visitor Program are required to maintain adequate insurance coverage throughout their stay in the U.S.  This coverage must meet the requirements of the J-1 Exchange Visitor Program, as defined at http://exchanges.state.gov/education/jexchanges/administration.htm#insurance.  Coverage which meets these requirements is available through CCSU at a cost (See http://www.bursar.ccsu.edu/).  Students who purchase appropriate coverage in their home country may waive the CCSU insurance coverage, provided they provide the Center for International Education with proof that the plan meets or exceeds the J-1 Exchange Visitor Program insurance requirements.
