- While selecting a student travel insurance plan, you should make sure that you pick an insurance plan in coherence with a set of insurance regulations and guidelines issued by universities abroad.

- One has to keep the insurance company’s credibility in mind. Careful comparison is a must before choosing a plan.
- You can check the claim settlement ratio of the insurance provider before buying a plan. An above average percentage can be taken as a sign of smooth claim settlements.

- You should immediately get in touch with your insurance provider to inform about the loss or arising of a claim.
- You can register it by calling on their s helpline number and provide them the claim details.
