Question about college tuition reimbursement benefits

Specializes in Emergency, ICU.

This may be a complete pipe dream of mine, but I know this used to be a benefit. I'm wondering how realistic it is to find an NP job within a teaching medical center that includes college tuition benefits at the university attached to it. And I'm talking about tuition for my children.

Do any of you have this benefit?

(FYI: I have several such institutions within my geographical area, but none disclose this benefit in their job postings... Anecdotally I know it used to be real)

The university medical center at which I work used to offer this benefit (tuition discount to the university for employee's kids), but that is long gone.

They are still around. University of Connecticut Health Center, the major teaching hospital in central CT, offers such a program: Tuition Program › Benefits › Human Resources › UConn Health .

Thanks! I'll call the HR of the ones near me and see what's what.

UPMC in Pittsburgh offers tuition reimbursement for dependents for a first bachelor degree. I believe it's $6000/yr. The universities in town also offer discount tuition for UPMC employees; some as much as 25-30% off.
