Student insurance

All students are required to have insurance coverage. If students are not covered by their parent's policy or do not have coverage that accepts our student health physician as a participating provider, they will need to purchase  insurance.  If you desire to purchase the college policy, you may do so. The cost of the college policy will be $715 This will cover the student from 08/08 through 08/09. Those students covered by a family policy must complete the waiver form making sure that your coverage is an insurance that accepts our student health physician and physicians in the Dayton, TN, area as  participating providers.  If your insurance does not have medical coverage outside of your state, you will be required to get health insurance coverage either through Bryan College or another valid insurance company. Spouses are elegible for this coverage as well at the cost of: $2224 for the year and $1393 for Spring semester.

Our student insurance coverage is through Bollinger Insurance.  http://www.bollingerinsurance.com/bryan/

Announcement for Business majors

Greetings from the Business Faculty. We are already looking forward to meeting you and having you in our classes. However, as you are anticipating your experience at Bryan College, please plan to get involved with our corporate dress program. We encourage (by offering significant bonus points) each of our Business students to bring dress clothes to get involved. Many of our students dress up most of the time to get used to wearing corporate attire for the "real world" when they graduate. It's also a badge of distinction for us. If you have any questions about the requirements, you can contact me at william.lay@bryan.edu

Cordially,
William M. Lay, Jr., D.A.
Professor of Business/ Head, Department of Business
