Students can earn their bachelors, masters, or even doctoral degrees through the Edu-Vantage Partner Program. Each organization determines the select degree programs that will qualify for employee education benefits. We work with each Edu-Vantage Employer Partner to identify the best degree and program options for their employees.
We collaborate closely with our Edu-Vantage Partners to align the company’s strategic goals with FAU’s Edu-Vantage Partner Program’s educational offerings. We also provide dedicated support for each Edu-Vantage Partner to help streamline employee access to their educational benefits through FAU. We can work directly with the Edu-Vantage Partner education benefits coordinators or an already existing third-party tuition assistance management company.
Our all-inclusive service option includes managing the entire education benefit process based on our Edu-Vantage partner’s tuition assistance program from paperwork and program services to providing centralized billing for tuition, course fees, textbooks and materials.
FAU caters to each individual Edu-Vantage Partner and can manage the entire employee education benefits process, invoices, and billing of course fees, textbooks and materials according to the Edu-Vantage Partner’s discretion.
Edu-Vantage Partners can opt to have course fees, textbooks and materials included in a centralized billing to avoid upfront course costs for all enrolled students as well as save time and money.
Alternatively, the Edu-Vantage partner can manage course fees, textbooks, and materials or students can pay for these upfront and provide receipts to employers or to their tuition assistance program.
Employees whose employers are Edu-Vantage Partners should first contact their employer’s human resources department to determine their education benefits eligibility.
As an employee of one of FAU’s Edu-Vantage Partners, you will need to contact your employer before applying to FAU to ensure eligibility for employee educational benefits. All qualified applicants will be sent a unique link to apply to FAU.

Students may attend classes on-campus and online or a combination of both for most degrees; however, some degree offerings may be completed by either the on-campus only or the online only formats depending on the selected programs eligible for employee education benefits as determined by the Edu-Vantage Partner.
In addition to Edu-Vantage Partner Program benefits, all Edu-Vantage Partner students have access to FAU student resources.
