What important information should a student know?

Studying abroad is a unique opportunity to combine learning and travel!

Above all, you will gain unforgettable experiences with a new country, a new culture and meet new international friends.

What is the 3-D secure procedure?

If you pay by credit card, we use the 3-D Secure procedure. It provides additional security for your credit card transactions and reduces the risk of fraud due to card misuse. You first enter your credit card number. A connection will then be established with the card issuer so that you can confirm your identity, for example by entering a code. If the authentication was successful, the credit card payment is executed. The 3-D Secure procedure should not be confused with your credit card’s check number (CVC). In order to use the 3-D Secure procedure, you must register with your bank/credit company, which usually takes a few days.

What is some information you should know as a volunteer?

Information for volunteers – The PROTRIP-WORLD insurance for volunteers adapts to your travel plans. You have the choice between different travel regions and you can also flexibly choose the scope of insurance: PROTRIP-WORLD always includes a strong international health insurance. We especially recommend volunteers to supplement their insurance cover with the Comfort or Plus Package to be able to travel and work without worries. The two packages differ in the scope of the liability insurance. The Plus Package includes a higher basic insurance sum and covers, for example, the risk of losing your keys and damages arising from an act of favor (e.g. at a garden party of another volunteer, you are asked to carry chairs from the flat into the garden, breaking the glass pane in the process).

Which health insurance has no deductible?

“Deductible” means that the insured person is obliged to cover a part of the treatment expenses. For example, a “deductible of €25 per insured event” means that you have to pay €25 of the medical bill yourself in each case of illness. The health insurance of EDUCARE24 does not comprise a deductible.

What is the TK public health insurance?
