Near Graduation Terms and Conditions

As a University of Phoenix (University) student who is within 24 credits of graduating from your bachelor’s degree program, you are eligible to participate in the University of Phoenix Near Graduation Program.

Here’s how the program works:

You are eligible for this Near Graduation Program if (i) you have been out of attendance for at least one (1) year or greater; (ii) you either return to your bachelor’s degree program or enroll in a new degree program provided you have 24 credits or less remaining; (iii) start a class on or between September 1, 2023, and August 31, 2024;  and (iv) do not have an outstanding balance on your University account. Upon meeting these eligibility criteria, you will receive a tuition rate of $320 per credit on your remaining courses taken between September 1, 2023, and August 31, 2025.

If you don’t meet the above criteria, then we would still love to see you return to the University to earn a degree, but you aren’t eligible for this Near Graduation Program.

Please note the following regarding the Near Graduation Program:

  1. This is a non-cash award and under no circumstance will the Near Graduation Program benefits exceed the invoice amount.
  2. The Near Graduation Program is valid for the bachelor’s degree program that the student most recently attended, a new program version or a new degree provided you still have less than 24 credits remaining in your program to be eligible.
  3. You may not have a balance on your university account.
  4. The Near Graduation Program cannot be combined with any other University scholarship promotion, memorandum of understanding or Tuition Offer. A “Tuition Offer” is any tuition benefit provided to the student as a result of a corporate employer partnership, international student discount, or other promotional offer.
  5. You are responsible for all other fees and costs associated with your degree program.
  6. You remain responsible for repayment of all Federal Student Aid borrowed for your program or any other program you have enrolled in and/or attended and are subject to the repayment terms and conditions set forth in your borrowing agreement.

    • Associate, master, doctoral and certificate programs.
    • Students who change degree levels.
    • Students who take a course after August 31, 2024.
  8. The Near Graduation Program will automatically terminate if:
    • The student fails to meet any of the eligibility requirements set forth above.
    • The student transfers to another University degree program.
    • The student becomes degree complete in the eligible degree program.
