Tuition Refund Plan

The enrollment period for the Fall 2013 Tuition Refund Plan is now available!

Hofstra University would like to make you aware of an optional tuition insurance program, the Tuition Refund Plan (“TRP”), available through A.W.G. Dewar, Inc. This plan may help minimize your potential investment loss if your student needs to withdraw from classes and leave school during the semester due to illness or accident.

Please click on this link for the A.W.G. Dewar, Inc. brochure for more details of the plan.

This refund plan would supplement the University’s published refund schedule. Subscribers are eligible for a refund throughout the term, even when Hofstra University’s refund policy has expired. Costs covered by the TRP include tuition only. The plan will refund up to 75% of insured tuition charges for medical/physical withdrawal or 60% of insured tuition charges for mental health withdrawal.

This tuition refund insurance plan is made available for your convenience, at your option. Hofstra University is not associated with, nor has received any benefit from, A.W.G. Dewar, Inc., One Beacon America Insurance Company or Atlantic Specialty Insurance Company.

The enrollment fee is only $127 per semester (available for Fall and Spring only).

Please note that enrollment in the plan must take place prior to the start of the semester for the school at which you are enrolled and the fee must be paid in full by the due date of your Fall invoice. If the fee is not paid in full, enrollment will be voided and coverage will not apply.
