International Travel

Due to the risks associated with international travel, the University requires the purchase of CSURMA Foreign Travel Liability Insurance for all University-sponsored international travel eligible for coverage. All University auxiliaries and Extended Education have also adopted this requirement.

Foreign travel liability insurance premiums for all University sponsored international travel will be paid as an all-University expense. Individuals traveling internationally on a trip or program sponsored by a campus auxiliary or Extended Education may be responsible for paying the insurance premiums.

Foreign Travel Liability Insurance

CSURMA’s Foreign Travel Liability Insurance Program is designed to provide financial protection for both trip participants and the University for claims arising from sponsored international travel. While this insurance does not eliminate campus liability, it provides an alternative funding source for losses associated with general liability, automobile liability and Workers’ Compensation coverage.

Individual Health Insurance

Individual health insurance is required for any individual traveling as part of a University or Extended Education program who is not a University employee or volunteer. Individual health insurance may be required for any individual traveling as part of an ASC or ASI program who is not either an auxiliary employee or volunteer. On trips where individual health insurance is required, students who do not have individual health insurance must purchase health insurance with benefits at least as extensive as health insurance offered through the CSU.
