# Travel Insurance

All international students have mandatory health insurance coverage while studying at Seneca. The coverage will be active for the current academic year \(September 1 to August 31\), depending on your program start date. It is highly recommended that you buy travel insurance when you purchase your airline ticket. Contact your local travel agent for information on travel insurance.
