Tuition Refund Insurance
The GradGuard Tuition Insurance Plan is an insurance program which supplements the Gustavus Refund Policy.        

Each year thousands of college students are unable to complete classes for the semester due to unforeseen medical issues such as illness, accidents, concussions, or mental-health related issues. Unfortunately, in many cases these families are unable to recoup all of their tuition dollars. 

At Gustavus, depending on the timing of the withdrawal, there may be circumstances where you may not be eligible to receive a refund of all of your tuition and fees. 

We understand that these situations can be a financial hardship for many families. 

Therefore, we are pleased to make available the Tuition Refund Insurance plan. 

Tuition Refund Insurance can help protect your tuition, fees, and room/board charges, up to the policy limits, if you are unable to complete the semester due to a covered medical reason such as an illness, accident, or mental health issue. This insurance program complements and enhances the College's refund policy and we believe families will benefit from this added protection.

Appeals
Special circumstances such as excessive medical expenses, loss of income, and a change in marital status can warrant a review of your family’s financial situation.
