Tuition Insurance to Protect Your Investment in Higher Education
At Maine College of Art & Design, we believe it is important to offer an easy, affordable way to protect the investment you and your family are making in higher education. The Tuition Protection Plan helps students and their families overcome the financial losses that may result from events, which force students to withdraw from the semester due to a covered medical reason. Helping families get the most out of your Maine College of Art & Design experience is always our top priority. That is why we have partnered with GradGuard™ to provide our students and their families with tuition insurance.
This coverage is supplemental protection, which strengthens and broadens the scope of our existing refund policy by reimbursing students for tuition, room and board and other fees for covered withdrawals, such as illness, injury, mental health disorders and death of a tuition payer, at any time during the semester. The Tuition Protection Plan also comes with a 24-hour Student Life Assistance hotline to help students stay safe on and off campus.
You can protect your Fall 2024 Term for $240.00.
Enjoy peace of mind for the education you have saved for:
- Compensation: Get reimbursed up to $20,000.00 if the student withdraws for covered reasons such as a covered injury or illness (mental or physical health condition) or loss of employment of the tuition payer after purchasing a plan
- Flexibility: Update the coverage amount to what works best for you (up to $50,000).
- Peace of mind: Receive protection for books, supplies, instructional materials, lab/activity fees, and more
- Help when you need it: Enjoy 24/7 assistance for emergencies, including help arranging student and family travel plans and returning the student's vehicle home
