Insurance

Students are responsible for insuring the laptops issued by Northwest against fire, theft and water damage.

Likewise, the University does not assume responsibility for the personal property of students. Residents desiring protection of personal belongings should check on coverage provided by family homeowner’s policies or make arrangements to purchase their renter's insurance policies.
