International coverage included
A Blanket Accident and Sickness Policy is included in the program price and covers the participant for the official on-site period of program.
This is not an optional benefit; every participant will be covered by an international insurance plan. We recommend that all program participants maintain comprehensive health insurance while abroad. This is particularly important for pre-existing conditions, but is also beneficial if the participant has an injury or illness while abroad and requires further treatment upon return home.
For a description of coverage, select the applicable insurance policy:
- Standard policy
- Spain programs over 90 days
- Australia & New Zealand semester/year programs
- International Custom Programs (short-term, faculty-led)
- Domestic Custom Programs (short-term, faculty-led)
As with any insurance policy, there are exclusions to the coverage which are listed in the Description of Coverage. It is important for you to read and understand the policy coverage and exclusions prior to going abroad. Among the activities not covered by this policy are scuba diving and scuba-related accidents and injuries. With this in mind, it is recommended that any students planning to participate in scuba diving take steps necessary to obtain specific coverage for that activity. The Diver’s Alert Network, considered the standard in the scuba industry, provides many scuba-related resources in addition to the insurance coverage.
