Will I Owe the Fee for a Gap in Health Coverage?

Hi, I have had regular health insurance through my university for the past five years. However, due to changes in coverage, I am going to have a gap in insurance from August 15, 2015 to January 8, 2016. Will I be charged a fee if I don’t have any health insurance for this period? I’m a student, so I cannot really afford to pay health insurance on my own and am hoping I can simply go without for these few months.
