Has anyone used their employer's tuition benefit to help finance a degree at either of the Big 3? I'm aware that employers have different policies and even prejudices but I'd like to hear others' experiences.

I used it for the annual tuition and two classes I took at Excelsior. My employer won't pay for tests, so I paid those on my own.

Also, someday maybe a MS in Forensic Psychology, just for fun. Oh, and a BS in Animal Behavior. And, maybe when I'm 85 a PhD in something fun.

Thanks, GoodYellowDogs. I can't use the tuition benefit for tests but I can use them for classes toward a degree. Patten is going well but really slow since many of my credits didn't apply to my degree program. If I can get the job to pay for at least the capstone, then I will transfer and be done with this degree in January.
