Tuition Waiver and Educational Assistance Program (TW/EAP)

Tuition waiver for Montgomery College credit courses and tuition reimbursements are provided to facilitate the continued growth and education of our employees. These benefits are only available to full-time employees.

Tuition Waiver - Employee Only
The purpose of the tuition waiver plan is to allow eligible full-time regular employees and part-time non-bargaining regular staff to enroll in credit courses at Montgomery College. Noncredit Continuing Education courses are excluded from tuition waiver coverage for employees but may be covered in accordance with EAP regulations, as appropriate. Fees for courses taken at Montgomery College under the Tuition Waiver Plan which meet EAP regulations may also be covered under the Educational Assistance Program (EAP).

In accordance with Maryland State law, tuition is waived at time of enrollment for Montgomery College courses approved in advanced under this policy and taken during non-working hours. Tuition waiver is limited to a space available basis.

Fee Reimbursement: Fees for courses taken at Montgomery College that are job, career, or degree-related would also be eligible for reimbursement. Course fees, only for courses taken at another college, which are job, career, or degree-related would also be reimbursed. Please note: Admissions application fees, graduation fees, and other charges assessed that are not related to a particular course will not be paid/reimbursed.
