Financing Your Education

The university provides access to several resources ranging from assistance with financing your education to eliminating student loan debt.

Continuing Your Education with Financial Assistance from Yale

Eligible employees have access to multiple programs to help reduce the cost of higher education. Additional information and how to apply for tuition assistance can be found on the Educational Assistance Programs page.

Reducing Student Loan Debt

The Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) is a federal program designed to reduce the burden of student loan debt for eligible individuals who work for qualified public interest employers. As a not-for-profit university, Yale is considered a public service employer and has partnered with TIAA and Savi to offer a PSLF program to Yale employees to manage the burden of student loan debt.
