ISI offers the Student Secure plan which will meet the insurance requirements for international students at the  University of Alabama Tuscaloosa.

Finding a health insurance plan that will meet your school requirements is not an easy task, especially for an international student trying to get ready for classes and begin a new school year in a foreign land. Many schools try to simplify this process for their students by having a school health insurance plan. However, they also know that students like options! This is why many schools allow their students to waive out of the school plan.
