Tuition Insurance Plan

Your application must be submitted no later than the first day of the term.

For Non-Traditional students (SPCS) there are times when withdrawing from classes mid-semester is unavoidable. Grad Guard in partnership with Allianz Global Assitance can reimburse tuition payments and other nonrefundable expenses if a student needs to leave school early for a covered illness, injury or psychological condition. It is important to note, depending on the date of withdrawal, the financial aspect may not be in your favor. As outlined in the Tuition Refund Policy, a percentage of the tuition cost is refunded up to the 6th week. After the 6th week of the term, there is no refund for withdrawal.

Because we feel that your college education is an investment worth protecting, the University of Richmond has partnered with Allianz Global Assistance to make tuition refund insurance affordable to our students. This is a completely optional service. The University feels that it is our responsibility to provide you with as much information as possible to assist you in making an informed decision.

Grad Guard in partnership with Allianz Global Assistance acts as an extension of the University’s refund policy—securing reimbursement for your tuition payment if you withdraw for a covered reason at any time during the semester.

Tuition Insurance is available to all MBA and School of Professional and Continuing Studies students.

Tuition is due by 5PM on the first day of both Fall and Spring terms. Summer tuition is due by the first day of the varying terms in which you are enrolled. If no invoice is received tuition is still due on the first day of any term.

Fall invoice notifications are emailed or mailed in early August and Spring invoice notifications are emailed in early December based on the timing of your registration. Summer invoices are sent twice a week based on the timing of your registration. If no invoice is received tuition is still due on the first day of any term. Your official UR email address is required to receive your university invoice and other official correspondence from UR. Miscellaneous charges are invoiced monthly.

Payment Policies

Failure to pay in full by the first day of the term unless a payment arrangement is on file with Student Accounts will result in a late fee applied to your account.

If you have a payment hold on your account, the hold may not be released until the next business day. Please contact Student Accounts with any questions.

No credit is given for a term's work nor a degree conferred until all charges have been satisfactorily settled. Failure to make satisfactory financial arrangements can result in delay of graduation, denial of registration privileges, removal from classes, and/or referral to a collection agency or attorney.

If the University deems it necessary to engage the services of a collection agency or attorney to collect or to settle any dispute in connection with an unpaid balance on a student account, the student will be liable for all collection agency and/or attorney's fees, reasonable expenses and costs incurred. Accounts referred to a collection agency are reported to a credit bureau(s).

You are financially responsible for your tuition even if you stop attending classes. Please contact your Student Account Specialist with any questions. See our withdrawal and refund policy.
