What is international student health insurance?

School-provided insurance often comes with limited coverage and a restrictive medical network. It can be even more costly than the international plans we offer. International student health insurance is a fantastic alternative that offers comprehensive and customizable protection for US-bound, US-based, and students of any study abroad destination.
