The Acadia Students’ Union Dental Plan is offered as a not for profit service to its members. In February 2006, students voted in a referendum supporting the introduction of an dental insurance program that would provide affordable health insurance designed especially for students on fixed incomes. The dental plan fee is automatically applied to student fees and the coverage period is September 1, 2009-August 31, 2010. Canadian students must be full-time in order to be eligible. Please Note: Every September 1st is the beginning of a new school year, and it is the beginning of a new dental plan coverage period. Students who wish to be removed from the ASU Dental Plan must visit the Health Plan Office (located in Room 610, Old SUB) and sign a waiver form opting them out of the insurance policy. This must be completed by September 30, 2009. Informing Student Accounts of your coverage WILL NOT remove you from the ASU Dental Plan. You must visit the Health & Dental Plan Office in person. Both the student and the Health Plan Administrator must sign the waiver.

Students requiring FAMILY COVE RAGE must visit the Health Plan Administrator to complete a form identifying their dependents no later than September 30, 2009. Basic Dental Benefits Overall combined maximum of $600 per student year
