GradGuard Tuition Insurance Plan

We believe it’s important to offer an easy, affordable way to protect the investment you’ll make in your education. That’s why Radford University has partnered with GradGuard who can provide you and your family with tuition insurance featuring special plans and rates.

Tuition Insurance Plan Overview

What happens when your education is disrupted by an unexpected injury or illness? Depending on the timing of the withdrawal, you may not be eligible to receive a refund for all of your tuition and fees.

GradGuard’s Tuition Insurance Plan helps students and their families overcome the financial losses that may result from events which force students to withdraw from the term due to a covered medical reason. Helping you and your family get the most out of your Radford University experience is always our top priority.

What's Protected?

Tuition insurance can protect up to 100% of a student’s investment in higher education including tuition, room and board, and academic fees.

Covered serious injury or illness such as mononucleosis, COVID-19, or a severe head injury.
Chronic illnesses such as an auto-immune disorder or diabetes.
Mental health conditions such as stress, depression, or severe anxiety.

Tuition insurance strengthens and broadens the scope of our existing refund policy and can provide reimbursement for tuition, housing and other fees associated with your educational costs that are protected for withdrawals at any time during the term. Plans also include Student Life Assistance, a 24-hour emergency hotline that offers students and parents an even greater peace of mind.
