Travel to Canada Guide
Medical Insurance
Basic medical insurance coverage is mandatory for all international students throughout the duration of their studies at Goh Ballet.
Most international students will need to apply for British Columbia’s Medical Services Plan (MSP) once they arrive in BC but will also need to have temporary basic private medical coverage during their MSP coverage waiting period.
It is very important that international students understand:
• That BC MSP coverage is required by law for residents of BC who stay for over six months, including international students
• That new arrivals to BC must apply for BC MSP as soon as they arrive in BC with a resident status
• When private basic medical insurance coverage would be necessary, such as during you MSP waiting period
• If you will be automatically enrolled in Guard.me or not (depending on the program type)
• What the difference is between basic and extended medical insurance coverage
