BACHELOR’S DEGREE COMPLETION PROGRAM
#137-20
Low-Cost bachelor’s degree for you and your family members! A life-changing opportunity from your union
Bachelor’s Degree Program for AFSCME Families
AFSCME Bachelor’s Degree Completion is available
to current and retiree union members, their spouses, domestic partners, children (including stepchildren and children-in-law), financial dependents, siblings, parents, and grandchildren. Family members do NOT need to be financial dependents or living with the member to be eligible. All courses are 100% online.
An Associate degree or 60 credit hours in the intended major is required to enroll. Students who have earned an Associate degree or college credit outside of their intended major, will begin with the AFSCME Free College program at EGCC and then transfer into the Bachelor’s Degree Completion program at CSU.
Central State University is Regionally Accredited
AFSCME has partnered with Central State University (CSU), a regionally accredited public, non-profit university near Dayton, OH. Credits you earn can transfer to other schools.
Low Out-of-Pocket Costs
Members and their families can earn a bachelor’s degree online at an extremely reduced rate.
The Student Success Grant will be applied toward eligible students’ tuition, fees and e-books, so the most you will pay in annual out-of-pocket costs is $4,500 ($187.50 per credit).* For many, the final cost will be significantly lower and, for some, even zero (depending on available federal or employer grants). To determine what your financial responsibility will be, you will be asked to complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) at fafsa.ed.gov (school code 003026). Students with a financial responsibility have several funding options available. Your enrollment advisor will help you navigate the process.
