Scholars, Students, & Faculty

Every year, thousands of students and educational staff travel internationally. Students start new, exciting chapters in their lives, take trips for missions or other educational purposes, or even enroll in cultural exchange programs. Faculty plan several week-long, academic travel excursions each semester as part of the curriculum. Whatever the case, it’s important to be prepared for any sudden injury or illness that can occur while traveling internationally, and the costs associated with emergency medical treatment.

To help enhance the global educational experience and to protect against these unforeseen circumstances, VIP Global Medical offers several student travel insurance plans tailored to fit the needs of international students, students involved in educational or cultural exchange, and faculty of international schools around the world.
