Full-time faculty and staff may purchase Life and AD&D coverage for their eligible children as long as they purchase at least an equal amount of coverage for themselves. You may choose Life insurance in increments of $2,000 up to a maximum of $10,000. Accident insurance is available in increments of $1,000 up to a maximum of $60,000.
Eligible children include your own natural offspring, lawfully adopted children and stepchildren. They also include foster children and those who are dependent on you for support and living with you in a regular parent-child relationship. Once a child reaches age 19 they must remain unmarried and enrolled in school full-time. They may then be covered until age 25.
