The International Student Identity Card is endorsed by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization,often called the ISIC (that's "eye'zic"). It was initiated to give traveling students a document that would be readily accepted worldwide as proof of their student status. The card provides many benefits to holders, including some supplemental health and travel insurance, discounts for museums and attractions, and discount travel. We strongly recommend that all UC students planning to travel abroad have the card. It is available at the UC International Programs. Bring a passport size photo and $22.
