We require that our participants purchase travel medical insurance for their trip and highly recommend plans that also protect your tuition investment. We recommend plans from Travel Safe / Trip Mate, one of the industry’s leading providers of travel insurance plans.
Reasons to purchase travel insurance:
- Comprehensive Medical Insurance
Many health insurance policies do not cover international medical evacuation or specific injuries. For example, scuba accidents are often excluded in standard medical coverage, but are covered by the recommended travel insurance policies.
- International Coverage
Many health insurance policies will not cover costs incurred outside of the USA or international emergency medical transportation costs.
- Protect Your Investment
Because of the seasonal nature of our programs, we cannot refund deposit or tuition fees due to cancellation for any reason. Trip insurance can protect your tuition investment in the event that a medical problem or family emergency prevents your son or daughter from participating. In addition, our recommended plan offers 'change your mind' coverage that provides 75% reimbursement if you cancel for any reason up to 48 hours before trip departure (policy must be purchased within 48 hours of initial trip deposit).
