Education Benefits
As an institution of higher learning, the University of Richmond is able to offer a unique and valuable benefit to eligible employees and dependents: Tuition Remission. The tuition remission benefit covers both credit and non-credit classes offered at the University of Richmond, with stipulations for both full-time and part-time employees.
The University of Richmond also participates in Tuition Exchange programs with other colleges and universities, making it possible for a full-time employee's dependent children to attend participating colleges or universities through a competitive scholarship process.
Full-time employees, their spouses, and their dependent children are also eligible, as per the tuition remission guidelines, to take Executive Education courses at the University.
