Insurance for Korean Students in the USA

Korean Students in the US

The US health care system while being one of the most sophisticated is also one of the most expensive in the world. If you are in the USA as a student, it is important that you have good student insurance.

Both the US consulate as well as all universities advice students to purchase student medical insurance. However since University plans are expensive, we offer relatively inexpensive plans with similar coverage. Most universities acccept our plans and we can also complete the insurance waiver form. To understand the differences among several plan benefits, Korean students can use our compare tool.

Students can quickly understand coverage details and select a plan to their liking. They can buy the plan with ease online and receive the required documents by email.
