Insurance Considerations

You will want to make sure you have insurance coverage for any damage to the rental car, as well as to other persons and property. In many instances, you will be enrolled automatically in UC’s policy coverage, so there isn’t any need to purchase additional insurance when picking up the vehicle.

Information about UC’s rental car insurance program is available in ConnexUC in the 'Policies & Resources' section.
