Insurance / health in the US:
All students who exchange to an American university must purchase American health insurance, per recommendation of the host university. This is in addition to other insurance policies the students may have from their home countries.
The insurances usually cost around USD 500-600, but can also be more expensive.
Certain universities also require that international students can document that they have certain vaccines.
You must also expect to pay extra "fees" to the university which cover e.g. access to the fitness centre, bus tickets, etc.
