Student Insurance

Our Student Insurance can be taken out in a Full Cover package that will reimburse you from the very first € or can work as a Top-Up Plan if you are already studying in one of the following countries:  AT, BE, CH, CZ, DE, EE, FR, IL, JP, LI, LU, NL.

Disclaimer: The ‘Student Insurance’ plan is intended solely for educational purposes, e.g. exchange or internship programs. While it is possible to additionally insure a holiday or recreational trip during your time abroad with this plan, it is not possible to use this plan outside of an educational context. In other words: this insurance does not cover leisure travel without an exchange or internship program.
