ACHE TUITION WAIVER PROGRAM
To reduce the economic barriers to ACHE educational programming for ACHE members experiencing economic hardship, ACHE has established the Tuition Waiver Assistance Program.
ACHE makes available a limited number of tuition waivers for specific educational offerings to ACHE Members and Fellows whose organizations lack the resources to fund their tuition for education programs. Members and Fellows in career transition are also encouraged to apply. Tuition waivers are based on financial need. Recipient must be a current ACHE full member or Fellow for at least one year from the time of the session start. Student Associates, Faculty Associates and International Associates are not eligible to apply. A member may only receive a waiver every three years of their membership.
Tuition Waiver Timeline:
Event Type: | Application Opens: | Application Closes: | Approximate Notification Date: |
In-Person Cluster | 16 weeks before program start | 8 weeks before program start | 6 weeks before program start |

Application requirements:
1. A detailed personal statement explaining your financial need for tuition assistance and how you, your organization and your community will benefit from your participation in an ACHE education program. In this statement include your name, title, and a brief description of your organization, including size, scope of services, population served and tax status. If in transition, please note this.
2. A letter of support from your organization's CEO or other senior executive endorsing your application to receive an ACHE tuition scholarship. Applicants in transition must have a letter of support from a professional contact (ACHE member preferred) who can speak to the applicant's commitment to the profession. Please be aware that the scholarship recipient and/or the recipient's organization will provide for all travel expenses, if applicable.
3. A detailed resume.
Incomplete applications and applications received after the deadline will not be considered.
