Financial
Aid


In the Juris Doctor Programs, special
grants-in-aid are available to outstanding
prospects such as graduate degree holders and
certain members of professional groups such as
CPA’s and law enforcement personnel. These
grants are generally equal to 10% of the tuition.
Many
businesses and professional firms recognize the
value of nationally accredited distance learning
programs for employee education. The Taft University System
has established the Partners
in Professional Education (PIPE
)
Program. This is a co-operative undertaking
between employers and The Taft University System to provide
graduate level educational opportunities to
qualified employees. Through the PIPE
Program eligible employees may obtain tuition
grants ranging between five and twenty percent.
Many
organizations sponsor employer-assisted tuition
reimbursement programs. The Taft Law School will
provide all reasonable assistance to supply the
necessary documentation to students seeking
employer reimbursement.

Military
In March 2005 The Taft University System began to participate in the Defense Activity for Non-Traditional Education Support (DANTES), which offers Tuition Assistance to those who serve in the military. In certain situations, spouses of military personnel may also be eligible for education assistance benefits. The DANTES Tuition Assistance Management Program (TAMP) processes the tuition reimbursement for active duty Army, Active Guard and Reserves (AGR), Air National Guard, and Air Force Reserve Command (AFRC) personnel upon successful completion of
courses.
Tuition assistance policy questions must be directed to the respective branch of Service. Information regarding Tuition Assistance (TA) for each branch of service can be found on
the DANTES
Website. DANTES requires specific procedures to be followed. The first step is to contact the military educational counselor to discuss the program options and the TA approval process. Please
contact the University with any questions your counselor cannot answer.
