TUITION REDUCTION BENEFIT
As an institution of higher learning, Post University is equally driven to invest in the future of both its associates and its students. The University’s exceptional Associate Tuition Reduction Benefit Policy is a prime example of this commitment. This benefit provides eligible regular full- timers (90% tuition discount) and part-timers (50% tuition discount). Spouses/domestic partners and dependent children (under the age of 26) of eligible associates may also take advantage of this benefit. Tuition discount benefit is offered for both undergraduate, graduate, doctorate, and certificate programs either online or on- campus. The application, eligibility criteria, exclusions, tax implications, and other terms and conditions of the benefit are outlined in a separate, detailed version of the Associate Reduction Tuition Benefits Policy, which can be accessed on the University’s ADP.
Use of this benefit is subject to advance supervisory approval and may not detract from an associate’s regular schedule work time or performance in their normal
role. When an associate separates from Post, eligibility to continue participation in this benefit is terminated at the end of the term in which the associate ends employment. This provision applies to the associate and the associate’s spouse, significant other and/or dependents who were also utilizing this benefit prior to the associate’s separation.
At Post University, equipping others to develop into the best they can be makes our organization a special place to work, learn, grow, and have fun.
TUITION EXCHANGE
At Post, making personalized, career dreams come
true is at the core of all we do for students and our associates. In pursuit of this objective, non-traditional solutions including generous educational assistance is embedded in our strategies. For example, Post offers
a Tuition Exchange benefit that provides full-time associates and their dependents the opportunity to apply for scholarships at more than 700 participating universities and colleges nationally. While scholarships are not guaranteed, Post associates and dependents who qualify are able to enjoy more affordable education with substantially reduced financial indebtedness.
If approved for a scholarship, most applicants are awarded full tuition, excluding room and board and fees. For more information on the Tuition Exchange benefit, please visit the website at www.tuitionexchange.org. A list of frequently asked questions may be assessable on ADP under the Resources/Company Information/FAQs section of the portal. This exciting benefit is another example of Post’s commitment to assist each associate (and their dependents) in achieving their career goals and full potential.
REFERRAL BONUS

The referable bonus will be $250 (taxable as normal) for part-time associates
or Associate Faculty referrals. The referring associate must be actively employed at time of payout.
