  It is extremely important to keep your contact information current and to check your MSM e-mail frequently.  The school provides an email account for every student.  This email account is the official means of sending you important communications and documents.  Go to http://webmail.mblayst.com and use your user ID and password to log in. If you do not know your user ID and password, contact the IT department at helpdesk@mblayst.com.

• My invoice has health insurance, room and board, or meal plan errors. What do I do?

  All full-time Manhattan School of Music students are required to have health insurance that meets the minimum essential coverage requirements set by the U.S. Affordable Care Act.

  The MSM-sponsored health insurance is mandatory for all F-1 visa holders entering a new program of study; the cost of health insurance will be included on your bill.

  Domestic students who are already covered may be eligible to waive the School’s insurance. An application for waiver must be submitted using the instructions sent by email from the insurance company. Once submitted, the company will notify you if your waiver was approved or declined. In the meantime, you may submit a copy of your current invoice with a note of your intention to waive and exclude the insurance amount from your payment.

  Note: If you don’t submit a waiver application, or it is declined, you will be required to pay for the insurance fee.

  Please mail the copy to the address below or you can send it as an email attachment:

  Manhattan School of Music
  130 Claremont Ave
  New York, NY 10027

  If you would like to change your resident meal plan or rooming assignment, you must contact residencelife@mblayst.com. If the change is approved, we encourage you to submit a copy of your current invoice with a note regarding this change and pay the expected balance for your correct resident charges
