Tuition Exchange Program
-
Who is eligible to participate in the Program?
All faculty, administrative, and support staff employees are eligible to apply for the Tuition Exchange Program (TEP). -
How does the Program work?
Employees can send their dependents to any of the 530 TEP institutions as “exports,” and the 香港六合彩开奖结果2023, in return, accepts the dependents of other members of TEP as our “imports.” 香港六合彩开奖结果2023 employees whose dependents are participating in TEP pay the equivalent of 香港六合彩开奖结果2023 tuition per academic year for the privilege of having the majority of their child’s tuition waived by the TEP institution they are attending (you still must pay room and board expenses, however). The amount that 香港六合彩开奖结果2023 employees pay for this benefit goes into a foundation account that allows 香港六合彩开奖结果2023 to pay the tuition (sometimes out-of-state tuition) for the students that we accept as our “imports.” -
What school participate in the Program?
A list of participating TEP schools can be found on the web site. More information about the program and applications can be obtained from Meghan Hull, Enrollment Services, (904) 620-2881. -
What happens if I terminate employment while using this benefit?
An employee must stay employed for over half of the semester for the benefit to continue through the end of that term. Please contact HR at 904-620-2903 if you have any questions.
