Thanks to the partnership between EKU and your employer, students who enroll with the EKU
Advantage are eligible for a reduced tuition rate. This reduced rate is now also available for
your dependents and spouse.
EKU will award our Corporate Educational Partnership employees discounted tuition for on-campus and online programs, from certificates through doctoral degrees, and Workforce Education & Training. As part of our 2-year pilot program this benefit now extends to eligible spouses and dependents.
EKU has more than 100 program options that can be completed completely online, and according to your schedule. No need to log on at specific times to complete course work.
Textbooks are free for all students with EKU BookSmart! And there’s no fee to apply. With a wide variety of financial aid and scholarship opportunities, there’s no better time to earn your degree and begin the career of your dreams.
Expedited and enhanced customer service assistance to employees to expedite and prioritize the admission processes, class registration, financial aid and scholarship applications.
Once you have applied and been admitted to EKU:
The 2-year pilot for spouses and dependents in the Corporate Educational Partnerships program begins in the Spring semester of January 2024 and runs for two years. The EKU Advantage is a scholarship for financial aid purposes and cannot be combined with other EKU scholarships or Merit awards. This scholarship does not affect eligibility for Pell grants and loans.
Dependents are high school graduates and are covered up to the age of 26 – if they are 26 at the time of enrollment and stay continually enrolled, they will not be disenrolled after 26-years-old, but they will stop receiving the benefit once they graduate with their first degree. If your dependent is currently a student at EKU and receiving a scholarship or merit aid, they are not eligible to receive the discounted tuition under the EKU Advantage Program and our Corporate Educational Partnership with KACo.
EKU is consistently recognized as one of the best online colleges in the nation. A brick-and-mortar accredited institution, EKU began offering online degrees in 2006 and continues to service all students with our on-campus offerings.
