Frequently asked questions

Who's eligible

Expand All Collapse All

As a Manpower associate, you’re eligible for Full College Tuition Coverage if you:

Are working on assignment at the time you register for the Full College Tuition Coverage program.
Be on an active Manpower Assignment when we run each eligibility check (eligibility for the program is verified 1 week prior to each course beginning).
Are working toward your first bachelor’s degree.

Manpower will confirm your working status and eligibility before each course you take. This program is available only through University of Phoenix. See the full eligibility requirements and guidelines for the Full College Tuition Coverage Program by logging into Secure Self Service on manpower.com.

Maintaining eligibility

To stay eligible for the Full College Tuition Coverage Program, you must be on an active Manpower assignment one week prior to each course beginning when eligibility is checked. If your assignment ends while you’re in the program, you can finish the course you’re in without additional cost to you. However, you won’t be able to start another class under the Full College Tuition Coverage Program until you have another assignment.

You’re welcome to continue your education with University of Phoenix at your own expense. The University provides a reduced tuition rate of $750 per course for the rest of your benefit year (calculated as 365 days from your first day of attendance in your first course).

However, we encourage you to work with your local office or recruiter to secure another assignment so we can better cover your tuition costs.

Benefits

Manpower will pay for up to six courses and up to $4,500 per calendar year (January 1 through December 31) or benefit year (calculated as 365 days from your first day of attendance in your first course). To find out which applies to you, mail mypath@manpower.com to contact a Manpower staff employee.

Even if you don’t qualify for the Full College Tuition Coverage Program, Manpower has worked with University of Phoenix to offer employees a lower tuition rate than non-employees get. So instead of paying a per-credit rate like other students pay, you’ll see a flat $750 tuition per course, plus any applicable course materials fees.

To see what non-employees pay, check out the current pricing.

University of Phoenix will waive the tuition and course materials fees for each associate’s seventh and eighth consecutive courses taken in any calendar or benefit year, provided you’re still otherwise eligible for as long as the Full College Tuition Coverage Program. That means you must still be on assignment with Manpower.

Also, as a Manpower associate, you’ll get a flat $750 per-course tuition rate for any courses you take outside the Full College Tuition Coverage Program. You’ll also be responsible for applicable course materials fees.

How it works

Education costs have risen an average of 2.6% in the U.S. every year. Meanwhile, the annual ManpowerGroup Talent Shortage Survey shows that the percentage of employers who experience difficulties filling job vacancies continues to rise.

Manpower is working to solve both problems by helping you get the education and in-demand skills — without letting tuition costs stop you.

Your education costs under the Full College Tuition Coverage Program are covered in two ways: directly by Manpower and through non-borrowing federal grants or assistance.

You’ll need to fill out a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), but don’t worry. You won’t need to take out any loans for costs covered under the Full College Tuition Coverage Program. Even if you don’t qualify for any non-borrowing federal grants or assistance, Manpower will cover your eligible tuition costs.

Access the Full College Tuition Coverage Program guidelines by logging into Secure Self Service on manpower.com.

Funding

Completing a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) form is required as part of the Full College Tuition Coverage Program to determine whether you’re eligible for federal financial aid. We require this step because any aid you may receive lowers our program costs and allows us to keep funding tuition for many of our employees.

Federal aid is based on financial need using your tax returns and other information. Manpower will pay the difference between any non-borrowing (sources that aren’t loans) financial aid options such as Pell Grants, for up to six courses, up to a maximum value of $4,500 per year. Manpower will be billed for these payments directly, so you can focus on your education.

Yes, Manpower will pay tuition if you’re eligible for the Full College Tuition Coverage Program Manpower will fund the tuition for up to six courses per year up to $4,500 in any calendar year or benefit year (calculated as 365 days from your first day of attendance in your first course). In other words, Manpower funding does not cover the completion of more than six courses in any single calendar year or any single benefit year.

University of Phoenix will waive the tuition for your seventh and eighth consecutive course taken within any calendar year or benefit year (as applicable) as long as the Full College Tuition Coverage Program remains in effect.

No. Associates who participate in this Full College Tuition Coverage Program may not apply for or accept any student loan funds. If an associate applies for or accepts any student loan proceeds or funds, the associate will cease to be eligible to participate in the Full College Tuition Coverage Program. If the associate decides to continue taking courses from University of Phoenix, he or she must pay for the courses including any course materials fees at their own expense.
