Who should I contact if I have questions about medical insurance?
Students and their dependent family members must have medical insurance for the entire duration of their stay in Canada. The Canadian health system provides a high standard of health care, but care is very expensive if you are not insured.
SFU international students, recent graduates, dependent family members, and newly admitted students can contact an International Student Advisor should they have any questions about their primary or secondary medical insurance in Canada. For more information about medical insurance in Canada, please visit the SFU Medical Insurance website.
