Seminary students applying for coverage must be attending an educational institution full-time for the purpose of attaining a degree in theology or in a related discipline. A student is considered a full-time ministerial degree candidate if she/he is a Member in Discernment of a UCC Association or Conference acting as an Association and will complete courses for a degree in theology within four years, or has UCC ministerial standing and is pursing an advanced degree that will be completed within three years. Once a year, during the Fall semester, seminary students may enroll in the Plan without having to provide evidence of good health. Enrollment within 90 days of entering the educational institution or within 90 days of the initial date of employment by a UCC church or UCC-related employer does not require evidence of good health; after 90 days, a Statement of Health Form is required. Once enrolled for Health Plan coverage, the student will be eligible to enroll in the UCC Dental Plan. If the student does not enroll in the Dental Plan at the time of enrollment in the Health Benefits Plan, he/she will be required to wait until the next “Open Enrollment” period is offered.
