yeah, you do. if you look at the school's living expenses, they'll probably include the cost. Some schools require it, some don't.
Cornell's is $1550 for the 06-07 academic year.
What kind of coverage do you get for the 1550, is it competitive or bare bones? Also, do you then get private insurance for the summers or is that included in the academic year?
I can tell you what Tuck does.
You are covered from the start of school for a full year (Sept-August). The coverage is actually pretty good when you use the on-campus medical services, pretty much 100% coverage with no-copay. No dental coverage, but very good prescription coverage (100%), again if you use the on-campus services.
Off-campus they seem to have $500-1000 deductibles, then everything else is covered. Outside of the network, it's even more.
If you do a search for specific schools health plans, you can find the info you're looking for.
