The ISI Guardian Plan – Updates for 2025

International Student Insurance (ISI) is excited to begin the New Year with group plan options for your international students! Our newest shelf plan, the ISI Guardian from GeoBlue, is a great option for schools looking for group coverage for their international students that is both comprehensive and affordable. 

The Guardian’s three levels allow you to choose the coverage that best suits your students’ needs. The plan has undergone key updates to kick off 2025, with the goal of keeping comprehensive coverage accessible for students.

Updates to the Guardian for 2025 include:
-Increased Mental Health benefits across all three levels;

-New Deductible amounts at Silver and Platinum levels;

-Optional coverage for intercollegiate sports up to $5,000 or $10,000; and

-Self-enrollment available.

The ISI Guardian was designed with ease of use in mind. Administrators have access to a world-class enrollment system, making the process more simple and efficient, as well as a dedicated account manager as your go-to resource for enrollments, renewals, and assistance cases. The Blue Cross Blue Shield network in the US provides students with reliable access to care, and they can easily monitor their plan (as well as submit and track claims!) with GeoBlue’s mobile app. The Guardian also includes 24/7 telehealth and telecounseling, so you know your students have access to care whenever they need it.
