At Glendale Community College, we take your well being seriously. In the US, health insurance is needed to guarantee access to healthcare at all times. As a GCC student, you also have access to quality medical and emotional care at the Student Health Center. To ensure your health, all international students are automatically enrolled in our affordable international student insurance plan.

The insurance is an accident & sickness plan, meaning you must be showing symptoms of an illness or injury for medical treatment to be covered. You will find a plan snapshot and information on properly using your insurance plan below. Please download your plan summary or call the insurance company if you need to check if specific procedures will be covered; The GCC Health Center cannot answer questions about your coverage:
