Student insurance is a specialized business offered by a limited number of insurers, the reason being that student's goods tend to be at a greater risk than settled homeowner's belongings. Most policies will cover belongings up to a maximum value of £5,000. Items such as your camera, jewellery or ones you carry around with you will come as an extra, your computer is also usually insured as a separate item and will not be included in the basic policy.

If you are a UK student and travelling to another town or city to study you may want to check whether or not your parent's contents policy can be extended to cover your goods while you are at college, if so, check for exclusions such as your mobile phone.
