The Student Secure plan provides you with an international student health insurance plan that will meet nearly all school requirements - and will often be cheaper than your school plan too.

The Student Secure plan provides coverage for hospitalization, doctors visits, medical evacuation, repatriation, maternity, mental health, sports coverage and much more.

Web logs, or blogs as they are more commonly known, are a great way to stay informed and keep up-to-date with all that happens at InternationalStudent.com, our other network sites and in international education in general. We have a number of great blogs that provide useful help, advice and information to students from all around the world, plus a couple that are written by international students themselves.

Our main international student blog covers many topics for international students and is our most wide ranging, our international financial aid blog is concerned with financial aid and funding an international education, then we have our study abroad blog by Matt Brattin as he studies in the Barcelona. Follow them all through our international student blogs and forums page.

When you plan to study in another country, the best way to start is to gather as much information as possible and do as much research as you can to learn about that country. We have created our "Study Centers", where you can find information, resources and advice for studying in a particular country. Each center offers information about the country, the culture, the climate, etc.. but will also provide you with detailed information about the education system and how you can prepare yourself to study there.

We currently provide study centers for international students who are planning to Study in the USA, Study in the UK, Study in Australia and our Study Abroad center is for US Students who are looking for a semester (or longer) outside the USA.
