Applying for Your Benefits

Use the application form [pdf] provided. You may apply for TWO benefits. You must use a separate application form for each benefit. Applications for this program year will be accepted from April 1, 2008 to March 31, 2009 and applications must be RECEIVED (not postmarked) by March 31, 2009.

The Partnership’s address and fax numbers are printed on the application form. You will receive a response within 10 business days. If you do not, please call (800) 253-4332 to inquire about your application. If you fax your application form, please do not mail the original, as it may be considered an additional application.

If you are applying for a voucher (payment provided directly to the participating school):

  1. Complete the application as requested. Use a separate application for each course.

  2. Include the correct school code and name found on the participating schools list. Each school listing includes a specific school code that is required on the application form. Please note that some schools have different school codes assigned to them for graduate and undergraduate credit-bearing and non-credit courses, and are listed separately. It is important that you use the correct school code on your application because schools only accept vouchers for certain types of courses.

If you are applying for reimbursement (payment provided directly to you, the student):

  1. Complete the application as requested. Use a separate application for each course.

  2. Use “TRP” (Tuition Reimbursement Program) for the school code, and include the school’s full name, address, phone number, and a copy of the school’s brochure (if available).
  3. Do not include course completion documentation at this time.
