Special-risk accident/illness insurance is available to those departments that engage in events outside the normal course of academic and recreational activities. This includes events such as summer academic camps, Creative Inquiry assignments, trips away from campus, etc. The policy is purchased through Berkley Life and Health Insurance Company. Questions regarding special risk coverage should be directed to Office of Risk Services & Insurance, 391 College Avenue, Suite 202, Clemson, SC 29634-5339, 864-656-3365.
There is NO charge for academic required or related events; however, the event must be reported to the Office of Risk Services & Insurance through the Enrollment Request form for Special Risk Accident Insurance, 7 days prior to the event.
