Health Insurance & Medical Support

All students are required to have valid health or travel insurance for the duration of their program.

We make this easy by offering optional health insurance coverage through trusted international providers. This coverage can be included in the cost of certain long-term programs, or added on for short-term stays. It’s a simple and affordable way to ensure peace of mind while living abroad.

Coverage typically includes:

  • Emergency medical care and hospital visits

  • Coverage outside your home country

  • Travel interruption and baggage loss

  • COVID-related medical treatment (where applicable)

Need help deciding on a plan? Our team is happy to walk you through your options.
