College students bring a lot of their belongings with them when they go off to college. And the things they own, like their laptop, smartphone, gaming system, TV, bike, kitchen appliances, furniture, musical instruments, and college textbooks, can easily be valued at thousands of dollars if not more.
If you are a college student, have you thought about what would happen if your valuable belongings were damaged or stolen? What if a fire breaks out in your dorm room or rented apartment? Can you afford to replace the damaged property yourself? We know that losing your possessions in a disaster is always stressful, especially if you can't afford to replace them. One of the best ways to protect your things and yourself from these stressful situations is to get renters insurance.
Finding renters insurance that fits your needs and budget is easier said than done. NSSI understands the challenges you face while at college, so we've designed an affordable and customizable Renters Insurance for College Students that can provide the comprehensive coverage you need as a college student. Whether you live in a college dorm or rented apartment, condo, or house, it's always a good idea to have some financial security and be prepared if the unexpected happens.
What does Renters Insurance for College Students cover?
Renters Insurance for College Students protects your personal property from covered damage or theft. Also, it includes liability coverage that protects the housing owner's property when damage occurs during a covered incident, such as fire, water damage, smoke, or explosion. If a covered incident happens, Renters Insurance will cover the costs to replace or repair the property.
Let's see what NSSI Renters Insurance for College Students offers.
Property Damage Liability
Renters Insurance covers damages to your college dorm, landlord's apartment, or neighbor's property. So, for instance, if your stove catches fire and damages the kitchen countertops or cabinets in your rental unit, or a bathroom flood damages the flooring or the neighbor's things on the floor below you, your Renters Insurance will cover the damage. All you have to do is file a claim and pay a small deductible, and we will take care of the rest.
Personal Liability
Renters Insurance protects you from personal liability if someone gets injured in your dorm room or rental unit. Imagine your dog bites a guest. Or you host a party, and one of your guests slips and breaks a leg. Or someone gets hurt from falling down the stairs. You may be held liable for their injuries in all of these scenarios. But, if you have Renters Insurance, it will cover medical costs for other people's injuries and all legal expenses for any ensuing lawsuits.
Personal Property Protection
This covers the things you own, like your TV, furniture, small appliances, bike, musical instruments, or textbooks, in the event of a fire, water damage, or theft in your dorm room or rental unit. So, if a fire damages your furniture or someone steals your bike or laptop, your renters insurance will cover the costs to repair or replace your things.
Accidental Damage Coverage
As an added perk, NSSI Renters Insurance for College Students has an option for accidental damage coverage, usually excluded from other renters insurance policies. With NSSI accidental damage coverage, if you spill coffee on your laptop or drop your phone and crack the screen, you can rest easy knowing that you're covered! You can protect all your devices from everyday mishaps, so you don't have to pay much out-of-pocket to repair or replace a damaged device. We provide coverage for all makes and models of personal devices – new, used, refurbished, rented, or owned.
Other benefits of NSSI Renters Insurance for College Students
