One of the standout benefits of working at the University of Maryland is Tuition Remission. The Tuition Remission page on the UHR website outlines how current employees and retirees can take advantage of this opportunity, including the application process for courses at institutions beyond UMDCP. You’ll also find details on mandatory fees, graduate-level programs, and policies for taking daytime courses. Start exploring how you can further your education!
5 Things to Consider Regarding Tuition Remission:
