Compass Student Insurance has been your partner for student insurance for 20 years. As an independent insurance broker and enrollment specialist, we partner with insurance companies and other service providers who value product, service, and lasting relationships. We don’t only sell insurance. We combine the insurance products with first-class service that is so important to international students in a foreign country.
Our partner for the plans presented here is Global Benefits Group (GBG). Their student medical plans are designed to meet the waiver requirements of most U.S. colleges and universities. Depending on your academic program’s insurance requirements, our plans will provide those benefits yet allow you to participate in cost-sharing to keep the cost manageable. In addition deductibles and copays are reduced or waived at Student Health Centers.
Plans can be purchased on this website and automatically enrolled online for instant policy fulfillment.
