Health insurance question. Am I eligible? Please help!?

Question

Hi there

So I am a resident of California, and a US citizen. I am an 18 year old student, who was financially abandoned by her parents. I live in the dorms at my school, thanks in large part, to loans and scholarships. In order for me to live in the dorms, I need to have health insurance. I was just recently alerted to this fact, and cannot register for classes until I get health insurance. (I have two weeks to get it, basically) I cannot afford health insurance. I can barely pay for college, let alone health insurance. Does anyone know if I might be eligible for Medi-Cal?

If you know, but need more information, please email me at [e-mail]

Thanks for reading and your input!

Answer 1

The university I attended had an insurance plan through their student health center.  Check and see if your school as any such program.
