BEFORE the pandemic struck in 2020, the number of US students studying abroad had been pretty much rising steadily each year. Whereas more than 154,000 students from the US participated in study abroad programs during the 2000-2001 academic year, that number more than doubled—to over 347,000—during the 2018-2019 academic year. That’s according to the Institute of International Education.
As a university administrator who specializes in international education, I believe the number of students studying abroad will continue to rise. I see that as a positive development given the research that shows studying abroad supports academic success, promotes career readiness, and prepares students to interact with people from other cultures.
Most study abroad programs offer, and many require, participants to enroll in an affordable international travel insurance policy. In addition to paying for medical expenses, benefits may include coverage for costs associated with trip cancellation, required periods of quarantine, and emergency evacuations. Additionally, the policy may provide non-insurance travel assistance services, such as helping to replace lost or stolen documents.
