Progressive Student Discount

Progressive Student Discount

College students can save on their car insurance with Progressive by checking their eligibility for available student discounts. These savings are designed to help young drivers and families reduce insurance costs while students are attending college.

Good Student Discount

Students who maintain good academic performance may qualify for Progressive's Good Student Discount. Eligible students must typically be full-time, under 23, and maintain a B average or better. The discount starts at 5% in most states and can be applied after providing the required student information.

Distant College Student Discount

Students who attend college away from home may also qualify for Progressive's Distant College Student Discount. If you are a full-time student, 22 or younger, attend a school located more than 100 miles away from home, and do not take your vehicle with you, you may be eligible for additional savings.

How to Apply

To claim these discounts, contact Progressive or update your existing policy with your student details. You may need to provide information such as your enrollment status, school details, and academic qualifications. Once Progressive reviews and confirms your eligibility, the applicable discount will be added to your policy.

Staying on a Parent's Policy

Many college students can continue using their parents' car insurance policy if their primary address remains the same as their parents' residence. This option is often more affordable and convenient than purchasing a separate policy, but requirements may vary by state and insurance situation.
