New Student Forms

The  HEALTH FORM is required of ALL new incoming undergraduates, including seminarians. Health Clinic must approve all forms before move-in date. Please note that the 2026-2027 form is not yet available. We appreciate your patience. If you have any questions, you can contact the Student Health Clinic at udhealthclinic@udallas.edu, or Campus Housing at housing@udallas.edu..

All new and continuing full-time undergraduates (except domestic seminarians) are automatically enrolled in and charged for the student insurance program. The insurance is opt-out, not opt-in. The annual process starts in May and runs until a deadline in September.  Newly enrolled Spring students have a February deadline for completion.  However, the health insurance cost may be waived upon proper submission of an online waiver directly with the insurance company broker.  September 14, 2026 is the deadline date for online waiver submissions for the 2026-2027 academic year. This is a process that must be completed each academic year and normally occurs during the summer in preparation for the upcoming academic year.  

Click HERE  for the UDallas page on the Academic Health Plans web site.  In the menu bar at the top right is a link to 'Benefits' where coverage details are available. 

Click HERE for the UDallas page with details towards the bottom on how to log in to the insurance waiver system, once available for students about May 1st and soon after your new UDallas email address and network login information has been issued to you.  If you cannot log in, contact the Office of Student Life.

The direct link to the actual online waiver form will be provided on the 'waiver' tab on the above web page once available.  Have your student ID number and insurance card in front of you before you begin the online waiver.  It is also strongly recommended that you also upload a copy of both the front and back of your insurance card (or a recently dated letter of coverage) while you are inside the waiver form.  Waiver status updates will be ONLY sent to the UD email address of the student from Academic Health Plans.  However, other email addresses added to the waiver at the time of submission will also receive a copy.

Please note that out-of-state Medicaid plans will not be accepted to waive the UDallas policy.

Absence of a verified waiver form by the September 14, 2026 deadline date implies your acceptance of the program and the related charge.  No exceptions to this deadline are possible.

Due to the Mandatory Residency Requirement all new students (except seminarians) MUST complete EITHER a Housing Application/Contract -OR- a Commuter Application if you qualify to do so (see above linked web page).  

You will later be notified with the necessary details to log into our new online housing/roommate matching program, eRezLife.  This is where you will submit your annual housing contract to live on campus OR submit a commuter application if living locally with parents.  All local commuters are also required to submit a completed and signed Off Campus Living Agreement Form as indicated and linked from the online commuter application.

Upon confirmation, all new students (except seminarians) are automatically billed standard room and board charges. These charges will be reversed upon receipt of a valid Commuter Application.

Room assignments will not be final until:

• • Completion of Housing Application/Contract before May 1st.
  • Receipt by the Student Health Services Center by July 1st of the completed Health Form  (see section above).
  • Release of any account holds by the Business Office, Registrar, etc. 

Be advised that any campus resident who breaks their housing contract at any point during the academic year while still enrolled and after previously moving on campus will be charged a $500 Contract Breakage Fee.  See published 'Terms and Conditions' of the housing contract for additional details.

Please note that email is our primary means of communication with students so it is YOUR responsibility to check your messages periodically.  All official emails will be sent via your new UD email address once issued to you by Admissions.

 

A personalized survey link will be sent to you via email. The survey will take about 15 to 20 minutes, but you are able to return to the survey if you can’t finish it in one sitting. The survey asks for information about AP and IB exams you have taken, as well as information about college credit you’ve already earned (including dual-credit courses taken in high school). Having that handy will streamline the process of filling out the survey.
