Eliminate the Financial Impact of Student-Caused Damage

Property damage is unavoidable in a college or university environment. Absorbing the cost doesn’t have to be.

Each academic year brings incidents such as:

  • Kitchen fires from unattended stovetops or microwaves
  • Water overflow damage from sinks, showers, or sprinkler activation
  • Smoke damage from cooking disasters
  • Fire sprinkler discharge

When students are uninsured or underinsured, housing departments are left managing:

  • Unpaid damage invoices
  • Collection disputes with students, families/parents
  • Delayed reimbursement
  • Administrative burden on staff
  • Increase pressure on master policies

Partnering with NSSI has helped student risk and property management staff reduce risk and burden.
