Every school I've attended, even for the summer, required a certain level of coverage--either your own insurance or theirs--before you could enroll.

Not Long Beach. I think that's probably b/c of the HIGH rate of students here in CA that don't have any type of health insurance. We automatically get insurance from the school b/c they have a great plan but you have to be enrolled to get it. If you're already under your parents insurance, you still get the school one. This comes in handy for the peeps who want BC but are afraid of going to their family physician even though there are confidentiality laws. I don't get their BC b/c I already get it for free from PP while at school, they'd charge me $15 a pack. It's still cheaper than what other women have to pay though.
