Children’s Life Insurance from MetLife

Group Life Insurance through your alma mater can provide the financial protection your family needs. Protect the people you love.

Children’s life insurance protects insurability. Once insured, those covered by this plan can remain insured for life. Children can even increase their coverage at age 23, regardless of adverse changes in health1. This coverage can also provide funds for a funeral.

When a parent is insured, each child age 15 days to 18 years can become insured for $10,000 and remain covered until age 23.1  All children are insured for one premium of just $3 per month…just 10 cents a day.

The parent who applies for children’s insurance is the beneficiary.

As long as the parent is also insured, children can remain covered until age 23. Then they can request an increase in their coverage to $25,000 or more. They may remain insured on their own as adults even if no parent remains covered.

1A one-time offer will be made at age 23 (not available in NY).

Frequently Asked Questions

I am applying for life insurance. How do I apply for coverage for my children?

A parent completes the Children’s Life Insurance Enrollment online or using our downloadable Form, and submits it with the parent’s own request or at any time thereafter.

If the parent cannot truthfully make the Statement of Good Health on behalf of all children, only children to whom the Statement applies should be listed; children not listed will not be insured. Children born after this insurance begins, however, are covered automatically on the later of (1) age 15 days and (2) release from the hospital.

The parent is informed of the effective date of children’s insurance, and premium is paid with the parent’s premium. If that parent dies, all future premiums for children’s insurance are waived.
