Insurance English Language Students

Students are not insured by the Slaney Language Centre against illness, theft, damages or loss of personal effects and the SLC accepts no responsibility in the event of such occurrence.

Language students should take out health and travel insurance. EU nationals should obtain form EHIC from their local social welfare office before departing. This entitles you to free emergency hospital care and attendance at certain doctors. It does not cover elective, medical or dental treatment. Any person undergoing medical treatment should bring a medical certificate and sufficient medicine to cover their stay. We strongly advise you to insure against loss of fees, personal effects etc. that you may incur due to cancellations or early departures.

Non-Eu language students can take out private medical insurance with us through Medicover. Private student insurance is a requirement by immigration for Non-Eu students.

Fees for personal accident insurance including administrative fees:
Our fees are up to €52 cheaper than if taken out directly with the insurance provider.
