Exchange students in NUS are covered by the NUS Student Insurance. This covers some COVID-19 costs. However, it is strongly encouraged that exchange students purchase additional insurance package(s) which include COVID-19 coverage to ensure adequate coverage for the duration of their exchange semester(s). Exchange students should also check with their home university to see what health or travel insurance is included in their home university’s policy.
