FALSE.
College students can benefit from renters insurance. Key reasons:
- Personal property coverage: protects laptops, phones, textbooks, clothing from theft, fire, some water damage.
- Liability coverage: pays if someone is injured in your rental or if you accidentally damage others’ property.
- Loss of use/additional living expenses: covers temporary housing if the place becomes uninhabitable.
- It’s usually inexpensive (often $10–25/month) and more reliable than hoping a roommate, landlord or parents’ policy will cover losses.
Tip: Check whether your parents’ homeowners policy already covers you off‑campus (and any limits), and consider scheduling high‑value items (instruments, jewelry) separately.
