Educational Benefits to cover online partnership programs for employees

Effective Fall Semester 2020/2021, eligible Ohio University employees will have the opportunity to utilize their Educational Benefits towards online partnership programs, which include many graduate degree and certificate programs. 

The benefit will cover the instructional and non-residency portion of tuition, and general fees may be waived with the authorization of the employing department. Additional fees (program, tech, etc.) are not eligible under the Educational Benefits program. Also, instructional fee benefits are limited to that of a regular graduate program. 

This enhanced benefit is provided to employees only; spouses, domestic partners and children of employees will remain ineligible for benefits covering the partnership programs.

Virtual information sessions will be hosted in June to provide additional information about programs included in this benefit.  Sign up to attend at https://onlinemasters.ohio.edu/ohio-employee-webinars/.

More detail regarding these programs, as well as a tuition overview, can be found at: https://www.ohio.edu/bursar/bursar-graduate-differential-rates/partner-programs
