Mandatory Insurance Requirements

All students (or employees participating as students) traveling abroad on a program organized by a university unit for pre-approved academic credit and/or utilizing University monies or otherwise sponsored by Boise State University must purchase mandatory medical, repatriation, and evacuation coverage for the duration of their sponsored program through Global Learning.

Failure to do so may result in financial consequences to the student, faculty leader, or department.

  • Please email Ami Tain to receive the GeoBlue roster.
