Phoenix, Arizona \u2013 College can be costly and stressful. For as many perks and peaks as there are, it does have its fair share of stress. \u00a0With bulks of work and the frequent demands to prepare for the future, balancing your life in and out of school can be a tough task.<\/p>\n
Sometimes students\u2019 overdo it to the point where you get ill with the flu, mono, depression or any other school and stress related side effect that you can think of.\u00a0 In fact, college students have many unique illnesses that may force a student to withdraw from school.<\/p>\n
Data from the American College Health Association\u00a0demonstrate that many student health issues are so serious that they can force a student to withdraw from classes.<\/p>\n
If you get sick or injured and you\u2019re forced to withdraw from school, what happens to your investment?<\/b><\/p>\n
Most times, you will not be refunded the thousands of dollars you are paying for college.<\/p>\n
Though universities often refund a portion of your tuition thru the first weeks of school you can safely assume that your tuition will note likely be refunded after the 5th week of classes and that your academic fees will also not be eligible for a refund. A 2015 survey of university bursars and health administrators confirmed that 84% of institutions do not provide a 100% refund.<\/p>\n
Tuition\u00a0insurance\u00a0can help you minimize the risk of financial loss due to withdrawal. It\u2019s not \u201cdrop-out\u201d insurance, but should you need to withdraw from school for \u00a0a covered medical reason, tuition insurance\u00a0can help protect that investment \u2013 your tuition and other fees.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
It is important to consider:<\/b><\/p>\n
a) what is your school refund policy?<\/p>\n
b) can you afford the financial loss if you should become ill or injured?<\/p>\n
c) get protection before classes start. \u00a0Just like you can\u2019t buy insurance after a fire or theft, you must buy tuition insurance before classes start.<\/p>\n
