EDU INSURANCE

Colleges don't often speak about the risks facing students, but here are some trends that you should be aware of:

According to a Spring 2009 study by Student Monitor:

  • 27% of students either themselves experienced or had a close friend who experienced a mid-semester withdrawal from college due to a student medical condition or a death in their immediate family.
  • 51% of college students have been hospitalized or have had a close friend be hospitalized in the past two years.
  • 47% of colleges students have been or have had a close friend be a victim of a loss of personal property in the pat two years.
  • 22% of students experienced themselves or had a close friend who experienced identity theft in the past two years.
