The Tuition Assistance Program (TAP) allows full time University System employees the chance to study and earn a college degree for undergraduate and graduate level programs. (Please note: professional programs, executive and premiere graduate programs are excluded from TAP). This is an exciting opportunity to increase your knowledge and expertise for your current job position or towards a promotion within the University System of Georgia.

To participate in the upcoming Summer 2013 semester, you must have completed your admissions process for the University System institution you wish to attend by the deadline for the TAP program application of Monday, April 15, 2013.

Due to the current shortage of nursing faculty in the state of Georgia, the Tuition Assistance Program is now available to Part-Time Nursing Faculty members seeking a graduate degree in Nursing. Any part-time nursing faculty member taking advantage of this program will be required to work full time within the University System at least two (2) years following receipt of the graduate degree in Nursing (or Education, if such would allow one to teach Nursing at the University level). Participation in the Tuition Assistance Program for Nursing Faculty will be available to part-time nursing faculty who have successfully completed at least six (6) months of employment, as of the date of the Tuition Assistance Program application deadline for the desired academic semester.

For general information on TAP and for access to designated registration dates for each school (once you have submitted an application), please go to: http://www.usg.edu/hr/benefits/tuition_assistance_program_tap/

Please note the following requirements in submitting a TAP application: a) no exceptions for fees and credit costs incurred for any employee who registers prior to the designated employee registration period; and b) by signing the TAP application the employee acknowledges that the TAP policy, with its guidelines and restrictions has been read and understood.

Effective January 1, 2011, the maximum credit hours that can be taken under the TAP program per semester is nine (9) credit hours.
