Tuition Insurance

At the College of Charleston, we understand the importance of investing in your student's education.

That's why we partnered with GradGuard to offer optional tuition insurance to provide an extra layer of security for both students and families.   

Here's how it works:

• GradGuard coverage strengthens the College's existing refund policy, offering reimbursement for tuition and fees in case your student needs to withdraw due to a covered medical reason, at any point during the semester.
• GradGuard makes protecting your investment easy and affordable, allowing you to focus on supporting your child's academic success.
• With tuition insurance, you'll have peace of mind knowing you're protected from unexpected financial losses due to unforeseen medical circumstances.

Choosing tuition insurance is a personal decision. When purchasing from GradGuard, the agreement is between you and GradGuard. The College of Charleston is not a party to the agreement.

We encourage you to explore the details and determine if the program aligns with your family's needs and risk tolerance.

Purchase Details

This tuition insurance plan can reimburse your non-refundable school expenses/payments (tuition, housing, and other education expenses) after an unexpected complete withdrawal of all classes (at any time during the covered semester) due to a covered illness, injury, mental health condition and more.

Plans also include Student Life Assistance: a 24/7 hotline that offers students and parents even greater peace of mind. The deadline to purchase is the last day of add/drop for each academic term.
