Options for funding your executive education:
Corporate Sponsorship: Full or partial sponsorship by an employer. Written authorization is required to arrange direct billing to an employer.
Program Cost Reimbursement: For information regarding corporate reimbursement, you will need to contact your individual employer as reimbursement policies vary dramatically from company to company. The best place to start is usually your human resources department. Students are responsible for payment of all University tuition and fees, and for submission of documentation to their employer for any applicable reimbursement.
Student Loans: Graduate students can utilize up to $20,500 in Stafford loans through the federal government each academic year. Eligibility for Stafford loans is determined by filing the FAFSA each year. Complete your FAFSA online at fafsa.ed.gov. Additional federal government funding may be secured through Graduate Plus Loans. Private, alternative loans may also be used as a supplemental resource to pay for your executive education. Because Title IV funds generally offer more favorable terms, it is prudent to exhaust all federal funds before pursuing private loans.
