OP you need to talk to HR about tuition benefits. There are commonalities but the details are going to be specific to your institution.

How does this work? Student must apply and be accepted to schools on list.
Then what's the application process for the scholarships? Only 4/6 a year?

This is one of the primary reasons I continue working there. The salary is meh but with three kids going to college this benefit really helps.

At GW, it's by seniority, so the faculty who have been at GWU the longest get priority.

I interviewed recently for a job at a college (not in DC) as a staff member. One of the benefits was that if I stayed 7 years, my child could get 50% off that college's tuition at any college. A pretty amazing benefit! My friend's mom worked at a small college and she got tuition remission (I'm not sure if it was all or partial) at another school, but she had to select from the schools on a particular list.

The Ivy universities and Stanford do something like this for full time faculty.

GW participates in Tuition Exchange, and 4-6 children of staff members per year get tuition covered at one of these schools: http://www.tuitionexchange.org/vnews/display.v/SEC/Families%7CMember%20Schools It's by application so I'm not sure how many apply and get in.

Who is in this exchange? Like PP 14:37, my university employer covers a portion of tuition at an accredited college or university.

Not a Catholic thing, but don't know if it's available much anymore. In some cases I remember there was only a student for student swap which made it difficult go match up.

The university I work at doesn't do an exchange, just a tuition credit for a percentage if my child attends another accredited U.S. university. Didn't know there was an exchange like this. Is it a Catholic thing?

Is anyone on here an employee at a university in the tuition exchange and have their child going to another university on the reciprocal list, tuition-free?
I'm wondering about the process of applying etc. Thanks
