A.W.G. Dewar Inc. Tuition Refund Plan

The current level of higher education costs requires Carnegie Mellon students and their families to make a substantial financial commitment. We are concerned with enabling families to protect their financial investments in a Carnegie Mellon education, especially when a student must withdraw during a semester due to a serious illness or accident.
