Personal and Health Insurance

All students are required to possess a comprehensive medico-travel insurance policy for the entirety of their stay in Oxford. Students are also required to bring a copy of the policy certificate to the campus showing:

• dates of cover; and

• level/extent of cover; and

• insurance company emergency contact number.

Minimum Cover: European Students

European students are eligible for treatment under the National Health service (NHS) via their European Health Insurance card (EHIC). We do recommend using the EHIC in conjunction with travel insurance in case it is necessary to pay for immediate treatment and then claim it back afterwards.

If you prefer, you may consult with a private practitioner while you are in Oxford. Fees for private consultation start at £35. Be sure to keep all receipts if you intend to submit a claim to your insurance company.
