Sending a child off to study abroad is a proud and exciting milestone, but it can also be a time of great anxiety for parents. The prospect of a child being thousands of miles away, navigating a new culture and potential emergencies, can be daunting. Royal Sundaram understands these concerns and offers comprehensive Student Travel Insurance plans designed to give parents the peace of mind they need, knowing fully well that their child is protected and supported throughout their academic journey.
Recent analysis made, highlights the ever-rising number of students from India pursuing education abroad. While this surge of students chasing their dreams internationally is truly positive, the concerns of the parents of these students are equally valid. While the students often worry about the financial costs incurred, the Parents are most worried about their children’s personal safety and security while studying abroad.
“The transition to a new country and academic system can be incredibly overwhelming for students travelling abroad,” said Mr. TM Shyamsunder, Chief Operating Officer of Royal Sundaram. Keeping this concern foremost in mind, “Royal Sundaram’s Student Travel Insurance product has been designed to provide the support and protection that students need to thrive both academically and personally during their time abroad.”
With the ever-changing times and needs, the Student Travel Insurance by Royal Sundaram offers comprehensive protection to ensure students are covered in case of any unexpected events. The coverage goes beyond the usual travel insurance offerings for medical expenses, loss of passport, or trip delay.
The student-specific coverage within the Student Travel Insurance also includes:
– Study Interruption: Royal Sundaram reimburses tuition fees paid for the period of non-attendance in case the student is hospitalized or faces any other covered event.
– Sponsor Protection: Coverage is provided for tuition fees for the remaining period of study in case of any covered injury to the student’s sponsor.
– Other Medical Emergencies: The insurance covers a wide range of medical challenges, including mental and nervous disorders, physiotherapy, and necessary medical treatments like ambulance charges and cancer screenings.
