titleAre there Plans UWF already knows they will reject??

Insurance for Students (IFS) is no longer the provider for international student insurance. Any plan you might purchase through IFS would require students to submit a waiver request. 

International Student Insurance (ISI) is no longer an approved insurance provider for UWF students. ISI and other insurance companies offer plans you might see labeled as "Student Secure" or "Worldtrips".

  • World Trips Student Secure Select - No longer accepted after July 2023. Does not meet requirements.
