**Lafayette College requires all students to have adequate health insurance. Every student will be billed for SHIP insurance; however, if you provide proof of private insurance through the patient portal, you can waive the SHIP insurance.

In addition, the College estimates an allowance of at least $1000 for books and academic supplies and approximately $1000 for miscellaneous personal expenses and travel. Financial aid will be pro-rated for seniors who are approved for less than full-time status.

Students who enter Lafayette as full-time students and wish to change to part-time status (enrollment in fewer than three courses) must be in the final semester of their senior year. For consideration, a petition must be filed by Aug. 1 for fall semester and Dec. 1 for spring. Once granted permission to enroll for less than full-time study, the student will pay the full-time comprehensive fee pro-rated to the number of courses for which the student is allowed to register and the full student activity fee.

  • Students are advised to check their family health plan to be sure coverage will apply in case a claim is filed while they are registered on a part-time basis.
  • Last semester seniors who are approved for pro-rated enrollment status should expect to have their grants, scholarships and/or loans adjusted accordingly. Students must be enrolled at least half time to receive state, federal and/or institutional financial aid.
