Affordable. Flexible. Accredited.

Any employee pursuing an undergraduate degree is eligible for unlimited undergraduate courses at Franklin University for $5,250 per calendar year. You will also receive free textbooks, resulting in $0 out of pocket costs when you are eligible for $5,250* in tuition reimbursement through your employer.

It is important the following steps are completed to receive your funding!

1. You will complete and submit your application for deferred tuition every semester through the Self-Service Student Finance menu, which will allow you to defer payment until after the semester concludes to allow time for your funding to be reimbursed to you from your employer. Here are the steps to take:
   • Log into your Self-Service and select "Student Finance"
   • Choose "Make a Payment" from your Account Summary.
   • Once on the Transact site, please click “View Payment Plan Options” and select the "Deferment Application" option to complete the online enrollment.
2. Obtain a letter from your employer (typically comes from HR department) not only stating you are eligible for tuition reimbursement but that you have also been approved for the benefit. You can simply respond to this email with the document.

PLEASE NOTE: Students eligible for federal and state grants will be awarded funding; however, employers or benefit providers may require applying grant funding before determining the amount they will provide in tuition reimbursement. Students should contact their employer or benefit provider to discuss their specific policy. The Ohio College Opportunity Grant (OCOG) is applied to tuition and fees only; therefore, if no charges exist on the student's account after they have met the annual tuition cap of $5250, any OCOG awarded will not be disbursed.
