Insurance for dorm contents?

I highly recommend purchasing dorm insurance through NSSI. It’s inexpensive, has a $25 deductible and covers accidental damage too. My daughter had a drop and water spill on her Macbook last year. NSSI handled the claim quickly and paid for $1000+ repair. All my daughter had to do was provide a purchase receipt, an estimate for the repairs, and fill out a few forms. She had a check within 15 days.

These policies cover everything a student can possibly bring to school and coverage isn’t limited to dorms - it covers their stuff worldwide. Given the expensive equipment they take to school, it’s a bargain. Better to keep it off your homeowners too.

We just submitted a claim for a bicycle stolen the last week of school and I anticipate that will be handled as quickly as the computer claim was.

You can apply on line with a few clicks. Highly satisfied!
