Insurance • Switzerland
Health and accident insurance is mandatory
in Switzerland; therefore, non-Swiss
resident students are required to take thehealth and accident insurance provided by
Glion, which covers them while on campus
and on internship. However, if students
have a private, valid insurance coverage
equivalent to the Swiss health insurance
coverage scheme, they are required tofollow the procedure to become exemptedby the Swiss authorities (information about
exemption and the validation of foreign
insurance plans is available from the
Admissions Department).
Students under a European healthinsurance scheme who wish to use thiscoverage whilst studying at Glion are
required to provide a valid copy of theirpersonal health insurance card to havethe health insurance fee deducted fromtheir invoice for the semester. If students
fail to complete this procedure prior
to their registration on campus, they
will automatically be registered for the
insurance provided by Glion at the mostcompetitive rate, which may vary from one
semester to another.
Students who have been granted theexemption by Swiss authorities are
responsible for verifying the validity of
their private health and accident insurance
coverage in Switzerland and on internshipin Switzerland or abroad; Glion will
not cover any health or accidentrelated expenses. Personal andprivate insurance, to cover issues
such as damage or theft of personal
property, is not mandatory but isstrongly recommended and is thestudent’s responsibility. Glion cannot
be held responsible for the theft ofpersonal belongings, student damage
or third-party insurance. The healthinsurance fee invoice for the internshipsemester(s) will be sent with the invoice
for the previous on-campus semester.

visa/work permit policies and/or language
requirements. Although internships are
generally paid by the employer, theremuneration received cannot be expected
to finance studies at Glion.

health agreement with the UK are entitledto access treatment – some treatments
are excluded and costs may apply.
