HEALTH INSURANCE
U.S. healthcare is very expensive. As an institution, we encourage all international students to have health insurance at all times during their stay at VU. The benefit of having health insurance is it covers your health costs once you have fulfilled the condition.
In the past, students have chosen PSI as their health insurance provider.
Minimum Coverage
You may also have your own health insurance, the university just ask you to ensure that it fulfills the following requirement:
- Medical Benefit - Minimum Requirement is $100,000
- Repatriation of Remains - Minimum Requirement is $25,000
- Medical Evacuation - Minimum Requirement is $50,000
- Deductible per accident or illness - Minimum Requirement is $500
If not, we will assist you with purchasing health insurance when you arrive. Please estimate $700 for one year of health insurance coverage. Health insurance expenses will not be included in your school tuition bill.
If you need to purchase health insurance, Vincennes University recommends IMG and specifically the Student Health Advantage plan. Pleases see https://www.imglobal.com/travel-medical-insurance/student-health-advantage for more details.
*Your policy’s coverage must become effective by no later than the first day of classes.
