How Tuition Reimbursement Works

Get approval by the deadline.: Submit a first-time course approval application in the EdAssist portal via Pathways (not your immediate supervisor/manager) no later than the course start date of the first quarter, semester or academic term. Applications will not be accepted after the course start date. First-time doctoral degree (PhD) applicants must receive approval from a review committee prior to submitting an application in the portal.
Pay for the course.: You pay for the course out of pocket.
Request reimbursement.: If your application is approved, you will be reimbursed after you complete the course (assuming you meet the continued eligibility requirements).

To receive your reimbursement, submit your grades and an itemized invoice of tuition/fees along with proof of payment within 60 days after course completion.
