Goucher College
| June, 2012 To Our Students and Families: |
||
| With the level of education costs increasing, we have had a concern for the student who suffers a serious illness or accident and has to leave the College before the semester is completed. In many instances it means not only the loss of time invested in studies, but also the loss of the semester’s costs. We are pleased to advise you of an insurance program, the Tuition Refund Plan, which will minimize the financial portion of the loss. This elective insurance plan provides coverage for Tuition, Fees, and Room charges. Accordingly, the costs insured for the 2012-2013 academic year average $44,172 (or $37,640 for off campus students). This Plan significantly extends and enhances the College’s published refund policy, which is described in the Goucher College Academic Catalogue. If a student withdraws because of a personal illness or accident, the Plan returns up to 100% of the insured term tuition, fees, and room (up to 75% if the withdrawal is due to a mental health condition) even after the College’s policy has expired. This is especially beneficial when you are forced to withdraw and then return for a later term. Please note that the insurance will refund charges net of any proration for financial aid grants and scholarships, less any refund issued by the college. |
