Insurance with Endsleigh

Originally founded by NUS, Endsleigh remains the only insurance provider recommended by NUS.



Students are worth more than you think!!!.....Cover your valuables from just £16 per year!

You could be forgiven for thinking that as a student you should be safe from burglars. After all, if you believe the outdated stereotypes about student lifestyles, is a poor eighteen year-old really going to have much to steal beyond second-hand clothes from the local charity shop and some tins of baked beans?

Of course, the real facts tell a completely different story – and the bad news is that students are very much a major target for thieves.

Endsleigh’s latest research shows that the average student now brings with them over £4200 worth of possessions with them to university. This means that student houses will often contain more valuable equipment than the average family home. No wonder burglars are interested:

  • The average student brings over £4200 of belongings to university

  • 98% of students own a mobile phone

  • 75% of students own an MP3 player.

  • 67% of students own their own laptop

  • The average female student takes £845 worth of clothes and shoes with them to university. The average male student takes £596.
  • Protection under your parents?

    According to Endsleigh’s research, a number of students without insurance assume they’re fully protected by their parents’ home contents insurance policy while at university or college. This is often not the case.

  • Some parents’ policies specifically exclude student cover and some only provide 90 days’ cover in a year. Needless to say, this makes them inappropriate for the vast majority of students.

  • Many parents’ standard home contents policies only cover students if there’s clear evidence of a break-in, as opposed to a ‘walk-in theft.’

  • One in three student theft claims seen by Endsleigh have no evidence of a break-in and therefore would not be covered by the majority of parents’ standard policies. The moral of the story is: you can’t necessarily rely on your parents.
