Insurance and Homeowner Benefits

As a graduate of Cal State Monterey Bay, you may access exclusive discounts and services designed to support you at every stage of life. Some benefits require proof of alumni status or active membership in the CSUMB Alumni Association.

As a member of the CSUMB Alumni Association, you are eligible to receive a discounted AAA membership — helping you save on roadside assistance, travel planning, insurance services and more. This exclusive benefit is available to verified alumni members. To confirm your eligibility, have your AAA agent email alumni@csumb.edu or call 831-582-3595 for verification assistance.

Whether you’re buying your first home, upgrading to meet your family’s needs, or refinancing to lower your monthly payments, the Provident Funding Mortgage Program offers an exclusive benefit for Cal State Monterey Bay alumni. Eligible alumni may receive a 0.25% discount off the cost of a home purchase or refinance loan, helping make homeownership more accessible and affordable.

To request the alumni discount code, email alumni@csumb.edu or call 831-582-4723. You can also visit the Provident Funding website to explore current interest rates, review loan options, and read customer testimonials before getting started.

As a member of the CSUMB Alumni Association, you have access to medical and dental insurance options through Association Member Benefits Advisors (AMBA). These plans are designed to provide flexible, affordable coverage that supports you and your family at every stage of life — whether you are transitioning between jobs, self-employed, or seeking supplemental coverage.
