Claim Your Tuition Reduction

Penn State World Campus offers a tuition reduction to employees of our educational alliance partners, as well as their spouses and legal dependents. This tuition reduction will be applicable to all undergraduate and graduate programs and courses offered by the World Campus.

Tuition Rates: Penn State's tuition rates vary by student level, program, residency, and primary campus location. If your primary campus location is not Penn State World Campus, the tuition reduction for World Campus courses will be calculated based on the World Campus tuition rate and not on your primary campus tuition rate.

Form Submission: Once you have chosen your courses, you must complete the tuition reduction form and submit it prior to the start of each semester. Email it as an attachment to the Director of Membership at the Greater Susquehanna Valley Chamber of Commerce at [email protected].

Eligibility: Students must be currently employed by, or a current member of a Penn State World Campus educational alliance partner, or be the legally married spouse or legal dependent (per IRS publication 501 (PDF)) of an employee or member of a Penn State World Campus educational alliance partner. Students receiving similar Penn State institutional scholarships or grants may not be eligible for the tuition reduction, and Penn State employees are exempt from eligibility.

Testimonial

The support I have received as a Penn State World Campus student has exceeded my expectations and surpassed what I have experienced with traditional brick and mortar programs. The online resources are phenomenal. It is clear that the design was made with the learner in mind.
