Life insurance plans

The Concordia Life Insurance Plans are designed to provide a financial safety net in the event of your death or that of a covered dependent.

You decide on the size of your safety net:

  • You want minimal coverage for yourself?
    You have the Basic Life Insurance Plan, which is fully paid for by the University.
  • You want extra coverage for yourself?
    Buy additional coverage at competitive group rates under the Optional Life Insurance Plan. This plan pays benefits in addition to the Basic Life Insurance Plan. You pay for the full cost.
  • You want to cover your spouse and/or dependent children?
    Buy coverage—also at competitive group rates—under the Optional Dependent Life Insurance Plan. You pay for the full cost.

The choice is yours!
