What our participants say about CISI

CISI was extremely easy and very affordable. When I found out I would not have insurance coverage for an overseas internship, I panicked. A friend recommended CISI, and I was relieved to find out how easy it was to enroll and that it would be affordable for a student doing an unpaid internship. I thankfully didn’t end up having to use it, but it definitely contributed to my peace of mind.”

Allison Shurilla, student

I have worked with CISI for many years, and I am always impressed with their friendly, prompt service with day-to-day issues. When we have had emergency situations, everything was handled quickly and professionally. Thank you for being so easy to work with!

University of Wisconsin

The service is excellent. Everyone is treated as an individual and treated with such respect. CISI professionals know our program and our specific needs. I really appreciate the details such as names of our insured students in an area of danger such as the email we just received regarding the earthquake in Chile last night.

University Of Minnesota

“CISI was very responsive and helpful as we started our international program. We had tried other insurance companies and were not successful. We had such bad experiences with others that it was hard to believe it could be so easy to work with an organization.”

Crossroads Community

“We have worked with CISI for many years and they are reliable, cooperative, and helpful. It has been a pleasure being associated with them.”
