What is Student Travel Insurance?

Student Travel Insurance is a specially designed insurance plan for students travelling abroad for higher education, exchange programs, internships, or short-term academic courses. It provides financial protection against risks such as medical emergencies, hospitalization, baggage loss, trip interruptions, and personal liability during the stay overseas.

Unlike regular travel insurance, student travel plans are structured to meet long-term stay requirements and are often aligned with university or visa insurance norms.
