August is a busy time for students, as most of you are getting ready for the new school
year! Whether you are a freshman or senior, August is a time where most students are packing
their bags, balancing their budget, getting their insurance in order, and preparing to meet
a whole group of new friends! This month’s newsletter is jam packed with information
to make this process even easier.
From the team here, we wish you a successful school
year!

Save up to $800 on your student insurance!
|
 Before you can register for classes, your school will
require you to show proof of health insurance coverage for your time abroad. You
can either purchase your school’s plan (if they have one) or find an
alternative, often cheaper option.
Our Student
Health plan comes in three levels and starts at just $30 per month - it is
an excellent insurance solution for international students and will provide
coverage for doctors visits, hospitalizations, prescription drugs, maternity,
mental health and pre-existing conditions.

Find a US School You Can Afford
|
|
The hunt to find a US school to attend next Spring should start now. Instead of picking any
school that looks like it might be a good choice, choose one you can actually afford! Making
this decision consists of more than hoping loans will cover everything. You
must make a strategic choice by finding a school you can actually afford. After all, you’re
going to have to pay back those loans at some point, make sure you can afford the amount you
take out!
