Insurance
Our experience has been that most policies purchased overseas do not meet the guidelines set out in the Code of Practice and, therefore, students will be required to purchase a compliant policy before they can enrol.
AIS can arrange insurance with Southern Cross Travel Insurance or Uni-Care Ltd (NZ). Alternatively, students can choose from the approved insurance policies listed below and provide a copy of the policy to AIS.
Download an application form for Southern Cross Travel Insurance. For more information visit the Southern Cross Travel Insurance website.
