Tuition Insurance
Carnegie Mellon University has partnered with GradGuard to offer students Tuition Insurance. This optional benefit can protect your investment in higher education in the event of an unforeseen, covered illness, injury or other covered reason resulting in a withdrawal from school.
Under qualifying circumstances, the Tuition Refund Plan will provide students and families with money that can ease loan obligations and allow students to continue their education without increasing costs.

I had to withdraw this semester. How do I file a claim?
Please contact the Allianz Claims Department at 800-426-5252 for questions on how to begin the claims process.
Grad Guard will send you a claim packet that will include the Institution Validation Form. Sections of this form will need to be completed by Carnegie Mellon University so we can verify that the student completely withdrew from school.
Do I need to purchase a new plan each semester?
Tuition Insurance is optional. You will need a new plan each semester you would like tuition insurance coverage because coverage is semester specific.
