Insurance for tuition fees?

Options
Does anyone know of any companies that insure students for the cost of tuition fees should they need to drop out of uni(health reasons)
I am just thinking ahead here and there is a possibility that this could happen. It may not of course but.............

    I am not aware of any such policy, but if dropping out is already a possibility I assume it would be a pre existing condition - any type of insurance for a pre existing condition will be very expensive.
    Gone ... or have I?
  • Not sure if it's what you're looking for but when I take out my student house insurance with endsleigh they have an add on to cover your fees. Never looked into it as I keep mine basic and doesn't seem worth bothered having them pay your debts as you wouldn;t need to pay them if I wasn't earning for whatever reason. Worth a look maybe

    Slightly old I know but if you have a basic policy through Endsleigh student insurance (whether you have already provided in your uni residences or bought yourself), you can 'top it up' with an insurance that protects your tuition fees for example if your parent/s become ill and you have to support them etc

    Yeah I think most student possesions insurance policies have an add on option to include something like this.
