Students

Veterinary school is hard. Between cramming for exams, pulling all-nighters, and managing an intensive schedule, you likely have little time to socialize—let alone build a comprehensive insurance portfolio.

AVMA LIFE Trust provides resources, promotions, and products specifically designed for the busy veterinary student. Explore our current offers, then call 800.621.6360 or your school agent with any questions.
