How can my boyfriend (who has CF) and I get married and have health insurance while in college?

He has Cystic Fibrosis (mild case, but with expensive medications), and I am healthy. We are both on our parent's insurance plans and would like to get married in the next 2 years (when he and I are juniors in college). Is there a way to do this?

If you are in college, you may want to check out health insurance programs that are written through your school. United Healthcare has a plan available at many US schools. These student injury and illness plans provide wide ranging coverage and are designed to be more affordable than an individual policy. To check if your school is participating, go to www.UHCSR.com and enter your school name at the prompt. Even if your school is not contracted with United Healthcare, you may become eligible by joining the ACSA (American College Student Association) for a minimal fee, and take advantage of the plan that covers college students across the US. If you don't find your school listed, type in ACSA and view the benefits available to their members.
