July 18, 2024 PHOENIX — GradGuard, the number one provider of college tuition and renters insurance programs, is pleased to announce that it has surpassed 600 school partners, marking a significant milestone in the company’s mission to help schools educate and protect students from the financial risks of college life. 

his achievement, reached with the additions of the University of Kentucky, the University of Nebraska, and Mississippi State University, among others, represents a substantial expansion of GradGuard’s network, offering tuition and renters insurance to the 18 million college students who invest more than $500 billion in American higher education.

“Reaching 600 school partners is a testament to the value GradGuard provides to schools and the students they serve,” said John Fees, Co-Founder and CEO of GradGuard. “More importantly, it reflects the increasing awareness among colleges and universities of the need to provide protection programs to safeguard students’ educational investments and personal property. Our institutional partners are among the most innovative and transparent in the country.”

Fees continued, “College is not risk-free. This milestone is all about the students and families that GradGuard enables schools to protect as they pursue their education.
