Maximum Allowed USA Scholarship and Employee Educational Benefit

The maximum allowed for USA funded scholarships, combined with the amount received in Employee Educational Benefits is $17,650 per academic year, and will be applicable to all employees of the University of South Alabama who are recipients of the employee/dependent educational benefit regardless of the employee's employment date.

If the total combined amount of the USA funded scholarship and the employee educational benefit exceeds $17,650 per academic year, the employee educational benefit will be reduced by the excess amount.

Employees with a spouse or dependent who is receiving institutionally funded scholarships covering 100% of educational expenses, as determined by the University, are ineligible for any additional employee educational benefit on behalf of the scholarship student.
