GradGuard Provides Resources for Syracuse University Students

For Steve Herndon, Assistant Vice President for Student Living at Syracuse University, the partnership with GradGuard matters because of what it provides students: resources to keep moving forward when life doesn't go as planned.

When students arrive at college, Herndon notes, they're excited. They have goals and aspirations for what life will look like both in the classroom and beyond it. But as exciting as college can be, it also comes with unexpected circumstances that have the potential to derail or disrupt the progress students are making toward those goals. That's where GradGuard comes in — providing resources through tuition insurance and renters insurance that allow students to recalibrate and recover as they work toward what they set out to achieve.

For someone who values education and loves learning, Herndon says it's refreshing to work with an industry partner that is committed to learning and committed to being a partner in students' learning journey. "I've just had a wonderful experience working with the GradGuard staff," he says. "They definitely live out their mission through their actions, through their behaviors, through the decisions that they make. It's been a wonderful partnership and a wonderful experience."
