All students must have medical and hospital coverage. All Nova Scotian students are covered by the Nova Scotia Medical Services Insurance. All other Canadian students must maintain coverage from their home provinces. Details of suitable insurance may be obtained from King’s Student Accounts or from the King’s Registrar’s Office prior to registration. The cost of most medications prescribed by a physician is recoverable in part under a drug plan administered by the King’s Students’ Union.
International students have the same access to services, supports, workshops, events and online health and wellness resources as Canadian students, as well as additional services available to you. All non-Canadian students must be covered by medical and hospital insurance. Details of the Dalhousie Student Union International Health Plan can be found on their website.
