College of Medicine – Tucson

The College of Medicine has secured a group disability insurance plan through Guardian for all medical students. This plan is both comprehensive and affordable and does not require any pre-issuance testing or medical examinations. The details of the plan, including benefits, are covered in these documents. In order to obtain this plan, all students must be enrolled and in good standing. The college assesses a $12.00 fee per semester to your tuition bill (see Bursar's account), which covers your cost of the policy.
