Frequently asked questions
Yes, University of Phoenix has been continually accredited by the Higher Learning Commission (HLC), hlcommission.org since 1978.
If you meet your employer policy requirements, your employer may pay your tuition bill directly using the Employer-paid tuition benefit. If you qualify, this can reduce your need to rely on savings, federal loans, or other sources to pay for school. Speak with your employer to learn the specific details of your tuition benefits plan.
Here’s how the Employer-paid tuition benefit works:
1. Request tuition assistance from your employer. Make sure you are eligible to have the agreed upon tuition amount covered by your employer.
2. Provide proof of funding and approval from employer. You may be responsible for the cost of tuition and the materials resource fee if you do not meet the employer course requirements.
3. Enroll in your coursework.
4. Complete your coursework, meeting your employer’s grade requirements.
5. Submit your grade to your employer.
6. If your employer’s eligibility and grade requirements are met, your tuition will be paid by your employer to the University, possibly with no out-of-pocket cost for you!
7. Please contact your employer to ensure you understand all the details of their tuition benefits plan and what specific costs and how much of your costs are included. Please check with your employer to ensure continued eligibility and grade requirements. Minimum grade requirements vary by employer.
We work with your employer to defer your tuition payment until after your course is complete. If you don’t meet your employer’s course requirements, you will be responsible for the cost of tuition. Review eligibility requirements with your employer directly.
Once you’ve chosen your degree program, you will complete a financial plan that will estimate your costs and explore potential ways to pay for it.
Speak with an enrollment representative for more information about your education benefits. Identify your company or organization on your application and let your advisor know the organization you are employed with. Finally, identify your company or organization in the University’s Student Portal financial plan before starting courses.
Check with your employer or benefits administrator to make sure your desired program is covered under your employer tuition assistance policy. Your benefits administrator should guide you through the tuition assistance process.

You’ll also get support by phone, chat or email, available up to 20 hours a day, 5 days a week. And you can start your degree year-round, not just once a semester.
Attending online class is easy because the classroom is always on 24/7/365. All you need is a reliable Internet connection.

Class participation is graded based upon your contributions to online discussions.
