Free College for Local 1994 Members & Families

Enrollment Deadline is January 12!
 
 
We are proud to bring meaningful benefits to every hard-working member of our union family. One valuable example of this is the UFCW Free College Benefit, which is accepting enrollment for Spring Semester I until January 12. 
The UFCW Free College Benefit makes it possible for you and/or your loved ones to earn an Associate Degree online through Eastern Gateway Community College, an accredited college in Ohio, with no out-of-pocket costs or need for loans. This benefit is available exclusively to UFCW members, retired members, and family of members, including children, spouses, grandchildren, domestic partners, and dependents.
We created this benefit because we understand how expensive and stressful it can be to earn a degree. With the UFCW Free College Benefit, you will have the opportunity to earn a debt-free degree and attend school either part-time or full-time – whichever fits your life schedule best.
All you need to get started is a high school degree or GED. There are no entrance exams to worry about.
Please click here to visit the UFCW Free College Benefit website to sign up or learn more.
Thank you again for letting the UFCW union family serve and support your goals. Remember the deadline to enroll is January 12, so sign up today.
As always, if there is anything we can do to help you, or if you have any ideas about what we can do better, please do not hesitate to let us know.
