Admission for Emory Employees

Your Emory Benefits Can Take Your Career Further

As an Emory University employee, you may have access to a valuable benefit that can help you continue your education right here at Emory.

Through Emory’s Courtesy Scholarship, eligible employees can receive tuition support for graduate study at the Rollins School of Public Health. Whether you’re ready to pursue a degree or simply want to build new skills through an individual course, Rollins offers flexible ways to take your next step. 

Your Emory Benefit Could Help Support Your Next Degree

The Courtesy Scholarship is a tuition-only benefit available to eligible Emory University employees who apply and are admitted to an Emory academic program.

For eligible employees:

  • Regular full-time employees may enroll in up to 6 credit hours per academic session, subject to Courtesy Scholarship eligibility.
  • Regular part-time employees may enroll in up to 4 credit hours per academic session, subject to eligibility.
  • The percentage of tuition covered depends on years of service.
  • The scholarship applies to tuition only; fees, books, and other expenses are not covered.
  • Emory Healthcare employees are not eligible for the Emory University Courtesy Scholarship, but can speak to their supervisors about eligibility for tuition reimbursement or other opportunities.  
  • Eligibility and benefit levels vary. Review Emory HR’s official Courtesy Scholarship information before enrolling.

You can also experience Rollins without committing to a full degree program.

Emory employees may apply to take select Rollins courses as special standing, non-degree-seeking students. Courses are available in both online and in-person formats, subject to prerequisites, space availability, and program requirements.

This can be a great way to:

  • Build a skill you can use in your current role
  • Explore a new area of public health
  • Strengthen your expertise in data, research, evaluation, policy, or health care
  • Determine whether a graduate degree is the right next step

Eligible Emory employees should consult HR to determine whether Courtesy Scholarship benefits can be applied to their special-standing coursework.

If you later apply and are admitted to a Rollins degree program, up to 9 eligible credits completed as a non-degree student may be transferable toward your degree, subject to program requirements and approval.
