Refundable Fees
Student Drug/Accident Insurance and Student Dental Plan ($150.70):
Drug/accident insurance and dental plan fees will apply whenever a student's status is assessed at the full-fee assessment rate. Even if you withdraw or change status after Sept. 30, (Jan. 31 for new January registrants) this coverage will apply for the year and the fee is non-refundable. If you wish to opt out of the plans because you have comparable coverage elsewhere, the fees are refundable only through an application to the Carleton University Students' Association (CUSA) office. Applications must be made before October 1 (February 1 for new January registrants not registered in the previous term).

How come the University can force me to have insurance? It should be my own personal choice. It's not fair to bound me to a certain insurance policy which I don't even know it. If it's true, I probably want to complain to the school.
If you don't already own a comparable insurance package, you probably HAVE to have one to study here (or anywhere else). Most likely you don't have grounds to complain de0.
