Eligible Georgia Tech employees can apply for spring semester tuition assistance Oct. 15 through Nov. 14.  

Full-time faculty and staff have the following options: 

  1. Tuition Assistance Program (TAP) provides a tuition waiver to full-time, benefits-eligible employees who have worked for at least six months within the University System of Georgia.  
  1. Staff Tuition Reimbursement Assistance Program (STRAP) provides partial tuition reimbursement at any accredited private institution. Georgia Tech employees are eligible for STRAP if they have worked here for at least 12 months.  

Time worked in a temporary position does not count toward the eligibility requirement for either assistance program.
