At the same time, in case you lose your passport or luggage you may have enough to handle already. Therefore, to tackle medical emergencies when you study abroad, student travel insurance is necessary.

Students can buy online health insurance from India and access it abroad anytime. You can also avail the insurance guide on the website to help you choose a suitable policy for your specific requirements. The climate in UK is quite unpredictable and you can fall ill and need medical attention.
