Melissa’s Answer

Hi Sarah-

Great question!! It really depends. The larger teaching hospitals and in metro city areas typically have higher reimbursement for their employees. In my experience, typically this covers 1-2 courses a year (undergraduate.) The employee often has to pay up front (approval needed up front also,) pass with a certain grade (usually a B or 3.0) and then submit paper work for reimbursement. Wish you the best! Melissa

Sara’s Answer

Sarah, it totally depends on the facility. In general larger hospitals and hospital systems have more generous tuition programs. If this is a key benefit to you, it's important that you ask detailed questions during your interview and hiring process. Some places pay for a limited number of credits per semester or year and, in my experience, will require a certain minimum grade before reimbursement.
Advancing your education is a worthy goal. Thank you for choosing nursing and good luck. Sara
