Health Insurance deals for students?

Looking for Student Health Insurance options around NYC, in NJ.
I am a second semester grad student. Fall 2009 I declined the health insurance plan from school because I was on spouse's plan. I got off the spouse's plan because it was too expensive. This was in November. I did not immediately apply to get my school plan activated.
Last week I contacted the school health insurance provider with proof that I don't have health insurance anymore but they said they cannot offer me health insurance because I did not request it within 30 days of quitting the previous plan. What can I do? I have sen offers for student health insurance online, but are they any good? Or can I fight the denial from my school's insurance provider?
For many reasons getting back on the spouse's plan is not an option.

Here is a tool to see some prices. On preview with other student health insurance offering sites, a lot of them do not offer it in NJ (such as Assurant).
