Missouri S&T partners with Anthem Student Advantage to offer comprehensive health insurance for students, including options to enroll separately in dental and vision plans.

Health insurance is an essential resource for all students. Ensuring your student has adequate health coverage is a priority now more than ever.  Unexpected health care expenses associated with illness, accidents, or mental well-being can destabilize a student’s financial situation and derail their progress toward a degree.

We have compiled information to assist families in selecting health insurance coverage that best meets their student’s needs. Families may also review the Anthem Student Advantage highlight sheets below.
