Yes — your student health and dental plans stay active during the summer, as long as you were enrolled in the plan during the academic year. Here’s what that means:
-
๐
Coverage runs from September 1 to August 31 of the academic year
-
๐ If you’re graduating, your coverage continues until August 31 of your final year
-
๐๏ธ You do not need to be enrolled in summer courses to keep your coverage
-
๐งพ You can still submit claims, access virtual care, and use your benefits during the summer months
-
๐ฑ Use the My Peak mobile app or log in to to view your coverage and claim history
Tip: If you’re planning to travel or book appointments over the summer, your benefits are still valid — just make sure you keep your insurance card handy.
