UFCW Discount College Program

Whether you’re looking for affordable degree options for your family members or want to continue your education, the UFCW Discount College Program gives you an affordable and flexible path to earning your degree. All classes are online and you can attend part-time or full-time based on your availability!

The UFCW Discount College Program provides UFCW members access to a broad selection of colleges, including degree programs ranging from certificates and associate to bachelor’s degrees, with plans to introduce master’s degrees soon.

Working Together: EDVANCE and EBS Union College

The UFCW International Union has partnered with EBS Union College Benefit and EDVANCE to help match you to the right program and school and assist you with the admissions process.

Prospective students can work directly with school administrators to apply for additional federal financial assistance, which could cover their remaining tuition costs.

The partners will also help you narrow down the school with the best fit for you, evaluate any existing transcripts to determine if earned credits can be applied to your new degree, and offer other support services as you move forward with your education!

Affordable

Exclusive discounts up to 50% off, available financial aid, and cost-conscious program design minimize student out-of-pocket costs.

Flexibile

Classes are online and fit to your schedule. 24/7 access means you can work on assignments any time of day, any time of the week.

Accessible

Both partners work with the schools and provide support to guide you through the program selection, application, and enrollment process.

How It Works

1. Get Matched

Fill out the partner forms to quickly identify a school and program that aligns with your goals and interests.

We recommend registering with both partners to see the full selection of schools and programs available.

2. Apply to College

Once you’ve been matched to a school, you will need to apply! You’ll then connect with the school and receive specific information on your program, costs, and transfer credits.

3. Make the Most of Your Benefit

Submit your FAFSA to find out if you are eligible for federal financial aid, which can further minimize your out-of-pocket costs.

4. Enroll and Start Class

Upon acceptance, your academic advisor will work with you to finalize your registration and get you ready to start classes!
