Graduate Assistants/Interns Life Events – Benefit Change Form

Welcome to UConn

Welcome to the University of Connecticut!

As you are now part of the University’s exemplary group of Graduate Assistants, Postdoctoral Fellows, Graduate Fellows and Graduate Students participating in University funded internships, you have the opportunity to obtain health benefits through the “Connecticut Partnership Plan”.

The Connecticut Partnership Plan offers comprehensive medical and dental benefits similar to those offered to employees in many Connecticut municipalities. To learn more about the version of the Connecticut Partnership plan available to you, review the menu items below. Please also review the required COBRA notification.

Once you have reviewed the plan information and required notifications, it is time to make a designation of whether or not you will enroll in the Connecticut Partnership Plan. Should you choose to waive coverage, keep in mind that all full-time students are required by the University to maintain health insurance coverage.

Whether you choose to enroll in the plan or waive coverage, the deadline to submit your election is 31 days from your hire date.
