How will attending college affect my Auto Insurance Rates?

College students are generally covered under their parents' auto insurance policy, if the student's primary address is the parent's house.

The specifics vary by state, so you may want to discuss them with a State Farm insurance agent.

Take advantage of insurance discounts. For example, you may qualify for a Good Student Discount if that applies in your area.

Traffic violations, what vehicle you drive, where you drive and how much you drive will affect auto insurance rates.

If the student is driving the vehicle at school, rates may change. For example, urban drivers generally pay more for insurance than those in small towns or rural areas.

If you are buying a new vehicle, you may want to consider which vehicles offer the cheapest auto insurance rates. Also, be sure to contact your State Farm insurance agent to add the new vehicle to your policy.
