Health and Accident Insurance for Students

Students may obtain optional health and/or accident insurance at their personal expense as St. Petersburg College does not provide such insurance for students. Such coverage may be obtained from the vendor selected by the College, for which application forms are available in the Student Activities offices or obtained in the marketplace.

Visit our Forms section to print the Student Health Insurance forms.

Laboratories and Clinicals for Students

Laboratory and/or Clinical participation by a student is at the student's own risk. The College does not provide health or accident insurance for students. Please refer to the paragraph above describing Health and Accident Insurance for Students.

Personal Property

Students who bring personal property to the College and/or leave personal property at the College do so at their own risk as the College provides no insurance in the event the student's personal property is stolen or damaged while on College premises.

Photography

All students grant permission to the College, its agents and staff to use video and photographs taken of them for SPC promotional/advertising materials without charge. No promises have been made and no consideration is involved for their use. If a student does not want SPC to use video and photographs of himself/herself then he/she must inform the Associate Provost on his/her home campus.

Professional Liability Insurance for Students

Those students in a program of study leading toward a degree or certificate in a health care profession who will be providing health care services to a patient or clinic under the direction of a faculty member of the College as a part of the course of study are required to have student professional liability (malpractice) insurance for which a special fee is charged. (See liability insurance fee listing in the Financial Information.) Students in the health programs are also required to carry clinical accidental insurance, which must be obtained through the College and for which a special fee will be charged. The professional liability coverage does not protect the student in the event of illness or injury.

Transportation

There are no free buses providing transportation to any campus. Public buses are available to the Clearwater, St. Petersburg/Gibbs, Seminole and USF/St. Petersburg Campuses and the Health Education and Allstate Centers.
