exchange insurance

yes, normal travel insurance is also suitable for short-term overseas studies, but please check the exact duration of the journey. Most of the travel insurace cover only jouney which is shorter than 180 days.

Also, you need to check the requirement of the school aboard. Is there any requirement of buying insuarance in the destination country? (It usually requires students who stay aboard for more than half year, but it would be better if you can check before leaving)
