Johns Hopkins Carey Business School Honor Code
All Carey students are expected to read and follow the Honor Code. For the most up-to-date version, please visit: http://carey.jhu.edu/students/student-resources/honor-code/honor-code/
The Carey Business School measures success by the way a Carey graduate stands out as an innovative business leader and exemplary citizen. The Carey community believes that honesty, integrity, and community responsibility are qualities inherent in an exemplary citizen. The objective of the Carey Business School Honor Code is to create an environment of trust among all members of the academic community while the qualities associated with success are developed in students.
The Honor Code requires that each student act with honesty and integrity in all academic and co- curricular activities and that each student endeavor to hold his or her peers to the same standard.
Upon witnessing a violation of the Honor Code, a student is expected to inform either the responsible faculty member or the Honor Council of both the violation and the name of the student accused of committing the violation. Each member of the Carey community, as a person of integrity, has a personal obligation to adhere to this requirement. It is only by upholding the Honor Code that members of the entire Carey community can contribute to the School’s ability to maintain its high standards and its reputation.
Violations of this agreement are viewed as serious matters that are subject to disciplinary sanctions imposed by the Honor Council of the Carey Business School, which is composed of a fair representation of part-time and full-time MBA, MS, BS and BBA students and faculty members.
The Honor Code addresses the following topics:

Health Insurance
Student Health Benefits Plan
All students enrolled in full-time programs (MBA, MS, BBA, and MA/MBA), and all F-1 visa status students are required to maintain adequate health insurance coverage to provide protection against unexpected accidents and illnesses. Full-time program and F-1 students are automatically enrolled in the Student Health Benefit Plan.
Students are billed each fall and spring for the premium on their ISIS Student Account. Coverage for new students begins on the first day of orientation and ends the following summer. Coverage for returning students begins on August 15, 2016 and ends the following summer. No refunds are issued once enrolled in the Student Health Benefits Plan, except in the case of an insured person entering the armed forces of any country.
Students can access their SHBP by logging into ISIS Self-Service. Select the Health Insurance option under the Personal Info tab.
Common FAQs:
Q: How do I get my benefits ID card? A: Students can print or request an ID card by clicking on the “Print ID Card” link on the “Action” section above. If a student has enrolled a spouse and/or dependent children, the benefits ID card will indicate "Family" coverage. Dependents are not listed individually on the card.
Q: If I have comparable personal health insurance, may I waive out of the JHU plan? A: Only non-F1 students who have a pre-existing health insurance plan through their employer or family may submit a waiver request (“Actions” section above). You will need your insurance ID card or a copy of your plan to answer waiver criteria questions.
Q: Why are international students on F-1 visas automatically enrolled in the JHU student benefits plan and not eligible to waive? A: Immigration regulations require that students on these visas have sufficient resources to cover all anticipated expenses in the U.S., including medical care. By automatically enrolling these students, JHU ensures that they have the necessary level of health benefits coverage.
