International Travel Insurance

•  All students traveling abroad should be covered under the CISI program.

• Trip leaders for student trips are highly encouraged to also be covered under this plan.

• It is optional for faculty/staff participating in other educational activities, like conferences for example (since employees have blanket emergency evacuation/repatriation coverage through CISI).
