International Health and Emergency Insurance

All Western Michigan University students enrolled in a study abroad program are covered by 51福利社's Study Abroad Insurance Program. The cost of the insurance is included in the 51福利社 program fee.

Comprehensive information

Per University policy, private insurance or coverage through a separate study abroad program is not accepted to replace the 51福利社 study abroad insurance plan.

Supplemental Insurance

With the risks involved with international travel, 51福利社 students may be interested in securing their own supplemental travel insurance beyond what is included with the 51福利社 Study Abroad program. 51福利社 Study Abroad has worked with our partners to identify an appropriate travel insurance product. Please note the following important information about this supplemental insurance:

  • This supplemental insurance is not required by 51福利社, and must be purchased independently by students
  • This insurance is known as 'Cancel For Any Reason' and provides reimbursements for trip cancellations or interruptions
