Corporate Sponsorship and Reimbursement
Many students are typically sponsored (in whole or part) or receive tuition reimbursement from their employers. Our office can assist you in framing your conversation with your employer in regard to the difference and added value a graduate degree taken in an executive program has in terms of value, return on investment (ROI) for the employer, the ability to apply what you learn almost immediately which is an added value to your organization and how the schedule of the EMBA, EMSF or EMS in FSA program is a convenience to the employer.
We recommend you speak to your Human Resources department and manager prior to applying to determine the level of support your organization will provide. We fees this is an important step since some organizations and companies have policies that differentiate the support provided for Executive Masters programs from Part or Full Time programs.
Sponsorship is not required as a condition to admission into the EMBA, EMSF or EMS in FSA program.
Student Loans
Many self-sponsored, self-paying or partially sponsored students apply for student loans to assist in the finance their education. The Executive Programs office has a financial aid officer who can assist you with the process and provide you with information about the various options available to students.
The most common first option is the Federal Direct Studen Loan program. Eligible students can apply for up to $20,500 per academic year under the Federal Direct Loan program. This loan is disbursed in two installments (1/2 in Fall semester and the othe 1/2 in the Spring semester). The current rate on this type of loan is adjusted and will be set near the end of your program.
Alternative student loans from private lenders are also options available to students.
We also recommend that you speak to you accountant or tax advisor about the tax consequences and benefits (such as credits, deductions, and tax treatment of student loan interest and employer financial support) of continuing your education.
The first step in applying for loans is completing your FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) on line at:
We strongly recommend you contact our office if you will be a self paying or self sponsored student to discuss the options available to you.
