Insurance for college students is one of those topics parents forget during the transition to college. The goal is getting students settled in a dorm or an apartment. Parents do not question coverage until receiving a phone call that says, “Mom I dropped my laptop” as Kiplinger Personal Finance writer, Jane Bennet-Clark writes. The fact is over 80 percent of students may not have adequate liability insurance to protect against property loss. Also, 1 in 7 has little to no health insurance, according to the Independent Insurance Agents of Texas (IIAT). Insurance needs change at different stages of life. It is no different for your child, whom you know better than anyone. Picture your kid on campus in an unsupervised environment. What calamities might ensue? Revisit your health insurance policy, auto insurance policy and homeowner’s insurance policy.
