Trip Insurance

Overview

If VISIONS cancels a program, you will be covered under our tuition refund policy. However, if you need to cancel, all or part of your tuition may be nonrefundable, per the tuition refund policies. VISIONS works with TravMark to provide insurance options, and you can contact their representative at info@travmark.com or 1-877-500-1556 if you have questions.

Once you purchase your insurance, enter the policy number into the Participant Portal.

Evacuation Insurance

VISIONS requires each participant to have evacuation insurance, at minimum. In the unlikely case a group evacuation was needed, we want participants on the same plans and therefore require purchasing through the options on this page. If you buy one of the insurance plans below, evacuation coverage is automatically included. Alternatively, to buy only Evacuation Insurance—which costs about $45— enter a trip cost of $0 when purchasing your insurance.

TravMark offers two trip insurance plans, and the detailed plan documents can be found here. These plans are not available to non-US residents or residents of Montana and Missouri, who can review their options in the sections below.
