At Glendale Community College, we take your well-being seriously. In the US, health insurance is needed to guarantee access to healthcare at all times. Current international students can access quality medical and emotional care at the Student Health Center and are automatically enrolled in our affordable international student insurance plan.

Access the insurance portal for a plan snapshot and information on properly using your insurance plan. Please call the insurance company for any coverage or billing questions; the GCC Health Center cannot answer questions about your coverage:

Students in the US for Spring 2026 should have received welcome emails from Student Insurance (studentinsurance@robinassist.com) containing your insurance cards, plan and prescription information, and 24/7 customer service information. Please add this email to your safe senders list. For a Plan Summary and Snapshot of the coverage please click on the “Downloads” tab from the insurance portal (bottom of the page). Students are encouraged to review the plan detail and watch the Student Portal Overview Recording above to learn about how to use your plan.
