Save with our car insurance discounts for students

Tuition, textbooks, and transportation costs can add up for students — and their parents! Fortunately, Elephant offers several ways to save when you have students on your car insurance policy. From a discount for earning a spot on the honor roll or heading off to college, we have student car insurance discounts for you.


Good student car insurance discount

Elephant offers a student car insurance discount for unmarried, full-time students under the age of 25 with a GPA of 3.0 or a B average, or better. A position on the Dean’s List, Honor Roll, or a ranking in the upper 20% of a national standardized test in the last year, such as the SAT or ACT, may also be accepted to qualify for this discount. Just call or chat with one of our licensed agents to find out more.


Student-away-at-school discount

If a qualifying student 22 years old or younger is living at school without regular access to a covered vehicle and the school is located more than 100 miles from the insured’s address, we offer a car insurance discount because the student will be driving less frequently. Just call or chat with one of our licensed agents to find out if you qualify for this discount.


More questions about student car insurance discounts?

Does the student-away-at-school discount also apply to a student in (military) basic training?

Typically the answer will be yes, but military basic training students will need to be considered on a case-by-case basis for this discount. Just call or chat with one of our licensed agents to find out if you qualify for this discount.

Do auto insurance companies ever verify grades for good student discounts?

Many insurance companies require some proof of qualifying grades to maintain a good student discount. At Elephant, we supply a form for the student’s school to sign and return within 21 days of the start of the policy. Report cards and official/unofficial transcripts of the immediately preceding school term may also be acceptable proof to qualify for this discount.

Can a good GPA get you decent insurance discounts?

The answer is yes! Elephant offers a discount for unmarried, full-time students under the age of 25 with a GPA of 3.0, or a B average, or better. A position on the Dean’s List, Honor Roll, or a ranking in the upper 20% of a national standardized test in the last year, such as the SAT or ACT, may also be accepted to qualify for this discount. Students must be single to qualify. Just call or chat with one of our licensed agents to find out more.
