<p>does anyone know if the tuition benefit will apply to NYU students whose parent(s) work at New York-Presbyterian (The University Hospital of Columbia and Cornell)?? or does the parent need to actually work at the Morningside Heights college campus?</p>
<p>Does the parent work for Columbia Univeristy or Cornell (Cornell has a pretty lousy tuition benefit)? </p>
<p>Last I remember Columbia benefits extended to Morningside, Harlem Hospital, Medical Center at 168th Street (NY Presbyterian) and Broadway, the Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory in Palisades, New York, Nevis Laboratories, in Irvington, New York,</p>
<p>my mom is a nurse and i feel it would be easier for her to find a job at NY-Presbyterian than at the Morningside campus. just wondering if i'd receive the same perk. the parent would work for NY-Presbyterian (which is affiliated with both Columbia and Cornell)...though i'd be going to NYU.</p>
<p>when you click job opportunities at Columbia</p>
<p>search open positions:</p>
<p>the pull down window lists the following locations:
Morningside
Harlem Hospital
Medical Center<br>
the Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory
Nevis Laboratories</p>
<p>you could check and see if your mom falls into any of the categories listed for job openings.</p>
<p>If you work at Columbia, doesn't your child attend Columbia for free (if she can get in)? That's what I've heard.</p>
<p>07dad,</p>
<p>The operative word here is if. Unless their benefits have changed radically, if you work for columbia and your kid gets accepted it is free tuition under your tuition benefit (and 1/2 tuition anywhere else). However, room and board are on you ;)</p>
<p>with our next kids (and for me in my next lifetime) we'll go to work at columbia and hot house our kids so that they will be attractive to columbia.</p>
<p>Not all universities are so generous. My husband and I get full tuition to our particular university only after five years. Half tuition to that school beforehand. What about other schools? Well, we only get $5000 per year toward tuition. They will not double it even though both of us teach there. It's something, but not a lot, given the cost of private college education.</p>
<p>The tuition scholarship benefit at Columbia depends on job title. Most people who aren't faculty are called "officers," and officers receive this benefit: 1/2 tuition for a dependent child at any university if one parent is an officer, full tuition if both parents are officers. There is no list of schools that they support or don't support, so I believe it's ANY university (maybe within the U.S.).</p>
<p>By the way, so far the job is going great. :-) I sent in the tuition scholarship application last week, so fingers crossed that everything will be in order.</p>
<p>Does Columbia pay full tuition for Barnard college too? Isn't Barnard part of Columbia?</p>
<p>Great benefits!!! My friend wanted a lot of children and wanted them all to go to private school, so she became a MATH teacher at a very good prep school (good math teachers can go wherever they want) and all the little ones get to go there for free.</p>
<p>A Columbia employee who has a child that attend Barnard College will get the tuition benefit.</p>
<p>Good morning,
Employee “tuition benefit”: i.e., Columbia pays for NYU, employee of NYU etc…</p>

<li><p>I’m the new kid on this block. Please forgive me if this issue was discussed before.</p></li>
<li><p>Does anyone know “a network of universities that participate in a reciprocal tuition program for employees” </p></li>
<li><p>Or Which college or university will cover for the kids if parent(s) work for that specific institution?</p></li>
<li><p>We are interested in NY, NJ area. We noticed that NYU is one of the university that cover after you work for 3 years.Please share with the info with us. Thanks </p></li>
