Do I need international student health insurance?

During your studies, you may not think about what to do if you were injured or became sick while away from home. Without warning, your experience abroad can quickly become a frightening situation if you’re not prepared for a medical emergency. That’s why IMG’s international student medical insurance provides the protection and support you need during your time abroad.

What factors should I consider?

  • University Requirements - Most universities and colleges require that international and study abroad students obtain a minimum level of medical coverage for their enrollment period.

  • Country Requirements - Your host country may also require insurance for international students, so it's important to verify your visa requirements before purchasing coverage.

  • Coverage Limitations - When studying abroad for extended periods, you won't be covered by either public or private health plans in your home country, and you may not have access to the national health insurance program in your destination country.

  • Minimum Medical Coverage - Your school and host country will often require students to purchase a plan that includes a minimum amount of medical coverage for accidents or illnesses.

Choosing the right plan

WorldStudy plans are available worldwide to individuals, families, and groups of various nationalities, who are studying or on a cultural exchange program outside of their country of habitual residence for no less than 30 days and up to 5 years. With health insurance plans designed specifically for international and study abroad students and scholars, IMG has done the homework so you don't have to.
