The fee consolidates previous non-academic mandatory fees and is financial aid eligible.

The comprehensive fee does not include the Student Health Insurance Plan or U-Pass.

Student Health Insurance Plan

DePaul requires all degree-seeking students to have active health insurance. Students must enroll in coverage or submit a waiver to opt out of student health insurance plan with proof of active, comparable coverage.

Academic HealthPlans (AHP) is DePaul’s health insurance broker. Visit the AHP website to learn more about plan benefits, rates, waiver criteria, and waiver instructions.

U-Pass

The Ventra U-Pass offers unlimited rides on CTA buses and trains for eligible DePaul University students during the Autumn, Winter, Spring, and Summer quarters. Please note that the U-Pass is not available during the Winter Intersession. The U-Pass is typically activated on the first day of classes and deactivated after the last official day of the term.
