- Protects personal property: Renters insurance provides financial protection in case the personal property of students is lost, stolen, or damaged due to covered events like theft, fire, or vandalism.
- Liability coverage: Renters insurance also provides liability coverage that covers students if they are found responsible for causing damage to someone else's property or if someone gets injured while on the rented property.
- Affordable: Renters insurance is typically affordable, with many policies available for less than $20 per month, which makes it easy for University of Minnesota students to obtain coverage without breaking the bank.
- Required by landlords: Some landlords may require students to have renters insurance before they can rent a property on campus or off-campus.
- Peace of mind: Having renters insurance can give University of Minnesota students peace of mind knowing that their personal property is protected, and they have financial protection against liability claims.

It is important to note that the University of Minnesota provides information about renters insurance but does not require students to have renters insurance. They recommend students consider purchasing renters insurance as it can help protect them from financial burden in case of loss, damage, or liability.
