The importance of insurance
We arrange language courses and accommodation abroad for thousands of clients each year. The majority of clients have an excellent, rewarding, safe and fun experience but we would always advise people who are travelling abroad to book comprehensive travel insurance.
For Europeans travelling within the EU, travel insurance should be bought in addition to an up to date EHIC.
The British Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) have recently drawn up an interesting infographic of travel insurance statistics for residents of the UK: www.gov.uk
For non-UK citizens we strongly advise you to get further advice from the respective authorities in your home country!
Depending on your policy and level of cover it is possible to be covered for some cancellations that you may need to make either before your study abroad trip or whilst you are attending a language course abroad. We will gladly supply any documentation insurance companies will require in order to reimburse you for any qualified, necessary cancellation.
A study abroad programme can be one of the most rewarding and enjoyable trips you can make and we hope that everyone is prepared as best as possible. If you have any questions about what insurance to ask for or need any further information on our language courses please feel free to contact us!
