How to Receive Your 20% Scholarship From Bellevue University

Bellevue University is a leader in serving working adult learners. They understand the needs and priorities that adults have when going back to school. And they add many benefits to this program, including:

• Select the degree program you are interested in pursuing. It is often best to start with a Personal Advising Session with our trained and responsive Enrollment Counselors. They can help you determine which degree best meets your career goals and go over financing options with you.
• Be sure to check with your Agency Supervisor or Training Officer to make sure you are aware of all the agency requirements that apply to tuition assistance/tuition reimbursement.
• When you enroll you will be required to submit a Leave and Earnings Statement, reflecting your employment with the Federal Government. Family members do not need to submit a statement to be considered for the 20% scholarship.

Other Benefits of Enrolling at Bellevue University

As a leader in serving adult learners, Bellevue University understand the needs and priorities that adults have when going back to school. That's why we also include these benefits:

• Payment Deferment
  You may be able to defer your payment to the university until we receive tuition assistance/tuition reimbursement payments from your agency. That means less for you to come up with out of your own pocket.
• Save Money by Transferring Credits Without Charge
  If you've already taken some college classes, you shouldn't have to repeat them. Bellevue University is a leader in evaluating credits you already have so you can transfer them into your degree program. And we don't charge Federal Government employees under this program a transfer fee!

The best way to find out how many credits you already have that can transfer into your degree is to talk to a Bellevue University Enrollment Counselor. Your Enrollment Counselor can also suggest other ways of earning college credit for work you've already done.
