Tuition Insurance Plan

The Student Accounts Office has concern for the student who suffers a serious illness or accident and has to withdraw before the semester is completed. In many instances, it means not only the loss of time invested in studies, but also a financial loss of the semester’s cost.

We are pleased to offer tuition insurance through the Tuition Refund Plan at AWG Dewar, Inc. that will help minimize the financial loss. This insurance plan provides coverage for tuition, room and board charges for the academic year. The plan protects schools and parents from the financial consequences of withdrawals.

The University’s refund policy already provides a partial refund of tuition through the fourth week of classes, and a pro-rated withdrawal policy through the seventh week of classes for room and board (see https://www.lesley.edu/students/financial-aid-bills-payments/refund-policies-processes for refund policy information). But the tuition refund plan will assure up to a 70% refund of tuition in the event of a complete withdrawal under the terms of the plan. If you elect to waive this coverage, you will be subject to the University’s refund policies.

To facilitate enrollment in the program, students will be automatically billed for the premium cost. If you do not want the coverage, you must waive the insurance online at www.lesley.edu/lois so that the full year cost, charged in the fall semester only, will be credited (removed) from your student account. You must waive this charge by August 1 if you do not wish to protect your tuition payments.
