International travel insurance for high school participants

With Protrip World, high school participants are optimally covered: International health insurance and optional cover for accidents, luggage, assistance and liability.

With a high school year, your time at school will be an unforgettable experience! Getting to know another country and culture, making new friends, experiencing a change in everyday school life and learning to speak a foreign language fluently - a year at high school is not only fun and lots of exciting experiences, it also broadens your horizon!

In order to be able to embark on this adventure with complete peace of mind, reliable insurance cover is particularly important. After all, you can also fall ill abroad and there are many other risks against which you should insure yourself.

Overview

A few practical examples:

  • You are bumped into in the crowded schoolyard and your best friend's mobile phone falls down. The display is broken.
  • Your tablet is stolen from your dorm room.
  • While surfing, you fall off the board and seriously injure your head. You will need to be treated by a doctor for a long period of time.
  • You are in hospital and you want a parent to come.

We therefore recommend that you take out complete cover, including health insurance, personal liability insurance, accident insurance and assistance insurance.

All these insurances are included in a Protrip World insurance package. If you are under 29 years of age, you can even get Protrip World at a special rate

How do I find the right insurance?

If you organize your high school stay yourself, you also have to take care of your insurance coverage yourself. If you organize your stay through an organization, their insurance offer is suitable in many cases. Nevertheless, you should take your time and check the insurance offered.

Here are some questions that you should clarify before taking out an insurance:

  • Does the insurance meet the requirements of the destination country?
    You can get information on this e.g. from the responsible embassy or consulate.
  • Are the benefits of the health insurance sufficient?
    A good health insurance should offer you protection in case of illness and accident and cover medically reasonable return transport. Furthermore, the costs for individual treatments should not be limited and illnesses should not be generally excluded from the insurance cover.
  • Is there protection in case of interruption of your work, for example for a holiday?
  • Does the insurance also cover sports accidents?

Our recommendation

The Protrip World insurance for high school participants adapts to your travel plans. You have the choice between different travel regions and you can also flexibly choose the scope of insurance:

 PROTRIP-WORLD always includes a strong international health insurance. 

We especially recommend high school participants to supplement their insurance cover with the Standard or Complete Package to be able to travel and work without worries. The two packages differ in the scope of the liability insurance. The Complete Package includes a higher basic insurance sum and covers, for example, the risk of losing your keys and damages arising from an act of favor (e.g. you water your neighbors' flowers while they are away and knock over a valuable vase, OR you empty the mailbox of your out-of-town neighbors and your key breaks off).

Tips on international travel insurance for high school participants

  • Before the stay abroad

    Many embassies require a confirmation of insurance for a visa. Take out the insurance in good time. If the travel period is postponed later, you can have the insurance period changed. All you need to do is send an e-mail before the planned departure date. If the notification after the originally planned date of departure, we need a proof (passport copy or ticket) from you.
