Why Insurance Still Matters

Even though it is a small slice of your total budget, health insurance is usually mandatory for your study permit and campus registration, so do not skip factoring it into your upfront costs.

My Advice

Confirm with Queen's University whether this insurance estimate is bundled automatically into your fees or billed separately, so you are not caught off guard when your first invoice arrives.
