Why We Exist

“An illness or injury can easily derail a student or scholar’s academic program. Protect their success by incorporating our tools into your work.”

Brooke Stokdyk;  CEO IE STUDENT HEALTH

Problems with health insurance and health care can seriously impede international students and scholars’ academic success, financial wellbeing and threaten J visa holders’ visa status. From the university’s perspective, it immediately threatens student retention, increases schools’ liability and affects the school reputation which lessens its competitiveness to attract future students and scholars.

Problems with health insurance and health care can:

  • Threaten international students’ academic success and financial well-being
  • Threaten J visa holders’ visa status
  • Threaten student retention rate
