Dear Stanford University Undergraduate Students and Parents:

We are pleased to inform you that Stanford University has arranged with A.W.G. Dewar, Inc. to offer the Tuition Refund Plan (TRP). This Plan will help minimize the financial portion of losses incurred if a student suffers a serious illness or accident and has to leave Stanford before the term is completed. This insurance plan is elective.

This is a private insurance program for undergraduate students that extends and enhances Stanford University's published tuition refund policy. Subscribers are assured at least a 75% refund throughout the term, even though Stanford's refund policy may have expired at the time of withdrawal.

Stanford University Tuition Refund Schedule

The tables below illustrate how the Tuition Refund Plan complements Stanford's own refund schedule for tuition. (See tables I and II below)

*Health insurance, if not waived by the published deadline is non-refundable. Room and board refunds are subject to the terms found in the Stanford University Housing Residential Agreement at Housing Assignments.

Tuition is refunded on a per diem basis starting with the first day through the first 60 percent of the term for each quarter. The per diem tuition rates for 2008-09 are listed above.

Are all undergraduate students required to enroll in Dewar?

No, participation in the Dewar Tuition Refund Plan is entirely optional. Families are sent information in August of each year.

What is the deadline for enrolling in the Dewar program?

On Stanford University’s first day of class, September 22nd, Dewar will cease accepting applications for the Autumn 2008 term and any applications which are postmarked after that date will be covered for the winter and spring terms of 2009. (Late entering students may obtain coverage provided applications are postmarked before their first day of class.)

If you wish to subscribe to the plan, your application and payment must be submitted before the first day of the term, September 22, 2008 for the Autumn term. For personal assistance, please call our Dewar's representative:
