Has Anybody here Gotten a Masters...

and had their job pay for it? (Tuition reimbusrsement)? How much did they pay percentage wise?

[AbdiWahab252]

Depends on the organization. Some places pay 100%, others 75% or others simply give you a lump sum of say $5,000 per year.

The best ones are the one that pay 100% for all of your courses, have on site classes, give you several hours off from work to attend class/study and give you a salary bump for each degree you complete.

I'm doing my MBA and My employer pays 100% if I get an "A" and 90% "B" and so forth..

Grad school is expensive and lately almost all companies pay for school

[Murax]

SDM,

So performance is what determines how much is paid I assume? Isn't tuition rembursement standard these days?


A/Wahab,

I assume that some companies will on purpose not accomodate employees with days off so they underperform and they don't have to end up paying anything?

Its standard.. Also when you obtain your degree u can not leave the company for a year...Pay increase is great and by then you will have more experience...


Its great thing to do wallahi

Murax,

Not intentionally. After all it would not be productive to them. My lil sister works for a great organization that provides the benefits I spoke of. I am very jealous of her. As soon as she gets her masters, its an automatic 15% bump in pay.

I have another friend of mine who makes an extra 5% for each level of certification he gets in his training program. His salary went up by 20K as he met each level of certification.

Murax, one of my older brothers is doing his masters and his job is paying 100%. He has a quarter or two to go.

Murax & SDM,

Do your organization's both have caps on tuition reimbursement ?

I know that at some Universities, as an employee all you have to pay is the registration fee for the class which can be as low as $40 per course. Its a great deal !

Alxamdullilah.........I pay $50 for the late fee, because the company pays the tituition after I finish the class and get my grade..

S-D-M,

Cool, but don't mess up your credit man

Mess up your credit, cash out your credit cards, borrow against your house and move to Africa & marry 2 wives

Masters Degree = ticket to success but I'm still paying off my tuition, Inshallah, I will be debt free February, 2009

[Murax]

SDM,

Maxumo man, keep it up. Do it for Gedo

A/Wahab,

I'm not sure as I didn't even inquire about it. I wanted to kind of figure out basic things about tuition reimbursement and how it works.


Voltage,

Haa kii caruuska soo maaha?

[AbdiWahab252]

Murax,

A majority of places require you pay the cost upfront, take the class, pass and then they pay. Others don't care if you pass, and pay once you give them a receipt.

Still if u got a $5,000 cap, that is less than 2 grad courses per year. So it will take years to complete your masters.

Don't marry a Sacad wife and then have another wife. She will make life miserable for you. Trust me !
