Employee tuition reimbursement available for 2017-2018

 

Colleagues:

Once again this year, tuition reimbursement for all employees has been included in the 2017-2018 college operating budget.

Here are the guidelines:

  • Available to ALL employees.
  • Reimbursement is available for coursework taken for credit at any nationally or regionally accredited college.
  • Coursework does not have to be job-related.
  • You do not have to be matriculated into a program to be eligible.
  • Reimbursement is for tuition only (no fees), based on 50% of the current SUNY in-state tuition rate for up to 6 credits per semester.
  • Funds are available on a first-come, first-served basis. I will notify the campus community when the funds are depleted for the fiscal year.

For Fall 2017, Spring 2018 and Summer 2018 (if funds are still available), the reimbursement rate per semester is:

  • $93.50 per credit/$561 maximum (6 credits) — Associate degrees and credit-bearing certificates taken at a college other than Hudson Valley Community College*
  • $139.00 per credit/$834 maximum (6 credits) — Bachelor’s degrees
  • $226.50 per credit/$1,359 maximum (6 credits) —  Master’s degrees and PhDs
  • $306.50 per credit/$1,839 maximum (6 credits) —  MBA program
  • $272.50 per credit/$1,635 maximum (6 credits) — MSW program

Here’s the procedure for reimbursement:

  1. Register and pay for the course(s).
  2. Send copies of the registration (a schedule is fine) and payment receipt to me, either by email at s.kalkbrenner@hvcc.edu or by inter-office mail (Guenther 164). There are no forms to fill out.
  3. You will be contacted by Accounts Payable via email when your check is ready.

*Please note that this does not apply to courses taken at Hudson Valley. For information on how to take courses here, please contact Human Resources or consult your bargaining unit agreement.

I am happy to answer any additional questions you may have. Just give me a call at 629-4530 or email me at s.kalkbrenner@hvcc.edu.

Have a great day!

Suzanne
