Tuition Insurance

What happens when your education is disrupted by an unexpected injury, illness, or other serious life event? Depending on the timing of the withdrawal, you may not be eligible to receive a refund for all of your tuition and fees. Further information regarding the University’s refund policy can be found here.

GradGuard Tuition Insurance can help students and families avoid a financial loss due to an unexpected withdrawal due to a covered illness, injury, mental health condition, or other covered reason at any time during the covered term.
