An international student may use the health insurance plan contracted by the UEWM and pay the insurance fee at registration or provide evidence of outside insurance in order to be waived of the UEWM contracted plan. UEWM currently uses International Medical Group for medical insurance coverage for students who do have their own plan. Students purchase coverage by the semester. All students can purchase student health insurance offered through a 3 rd party. Students must purchase malpractice insurance once clinic practice begins. The fee for insurance is billed at registration and covers the period of the semester only. Coverage must be purchased each semester.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Other Benefits<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>As a UEWM student, you also have access to acupuncture visits, at the cost of $18 per visit, exclusively provided by the East-West Medical Clinic. These visits are not an insured benefit offered by the insurance plan provided by the school; therefore, you must show your UEWM student ID card at the time of your appointment.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Campus &amp; Safety<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><strong>Campus Safety Report<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em><a href=\"https:\/\/uewm.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/2025-Annual-Campus-Safety-and-Security-Report.pdf\">2025 Annual Campus Safety and Security Report<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><a href=\"https:\/\/uewm.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/2024-Annual-Campus-Safety-and-Security-Report.pdf\">2024 Annual Campus Safety and Security Report<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><a href=\"https:\/\/uewm.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/2023-Annual-Campus-Safety-and-Security-Report.pdf\">2023 Annual Campus Safety and Security Report<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><a href=\"https:\/\/uewm.edu\/doc\/Campus%20Safety%20Plan.pdf\">2022 Annual Campus Safety and Security Report<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><a href=\"https:\/\/uewm.edu\/doc\/2021 Annual Campus Safety and Security Report.pdf\">2021 Annual Campus Safety and Security Report<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><a href=\"https:\/\/uewm.edu\/doc\/2020%20Annual%20Campus%20Safety%20and%20Security%20Report.pdf\">2020 Annual Campus Safety and Security Report<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><a href=\"https:\/\/uewm.edu\/doc\/2019%20Annual%20Campus%20Safety%20and%20Security%20Report.pdf\">2019 Annual Campus Safety and Security Report<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>UEWM is a drug, alcohol, and weapon-free campus.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/uewm.edu\/doc\/2019%20UEWM-%20DAAPP%205.6.19.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">UEWM Drug and Alcohol-Free policies and procedures<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/uewm.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/2025-UEWM-DAAPP.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">UEWM Biennial Review<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Security Off-Campus<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><strong>University of East-West Medicine Violence Against Women Policy<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em><a href=\"https:\/\/uewm.edu\/students\/vawa\">Violence Against Women Act (VAWA)<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Title IX Compliance<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em><a href=\"https:\/\/uewm.edu\/students\/disclosure\">Title IX Disclosures<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<h4><strong>Public Transportation<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>You need to count on public transportation to come to the UEWM if you don\u2019t have a car.\u00a0 Bus # 55 route passes right by the UEWM.
