Boost your career potential with an affordable degree from a leader in online education.

If you're an Accenture Federal Services employee, or the spouse or legal dependent of an employee, you can take advantage of several education benefits thanks to an alliance with University of Maryland Global Campus, a leader in online education for working adults.

Thanks to this alliance, you may be able to obtain several benefits as a UMGC student:

  • Participation in the direct billing program (for eligible, legacy Novettans only)
  • A $50 application fee waiver when applying as a new student
  • A discount of up to 25 percent on out-of-state tuition for most UMGC programs, thanks to our special discount program (for spouses and dependents of employees, and employees not utilizing the direct billing program)

Direct Billing for Eligible Accenture Federal Services Employees (Legacy Novettans)

Through this education alliance, Accenture Federal Services will cover a maximum of $5,250 per calendar year for tuition-related costs. You will be responsible for any charges not covered by your employer at the applicable rate (discounted out-of-state, Maryland resident, or military).

To access this direct bill tuition assistance, you must complete the Authorization for Invoicing form for every term you intend to utilize the assistance program. Until this form is received and processed, you will be responsible for any charges.

Please confirm with your employer the eligibility requirements you must meet to participate in this program.

Special Discount Program

Even if you’re not eligible for direct billing, you, your spouse, and your legal dependents may be eligible to receive a discount of up to 25 percent on out-of-state tuition for undergraduate and standard graduate programs, thanks to UMGC’s alliance with Accenture Federal Services.

Tuition Discount Details

This discount will be applied to out-of-state tuition for eligible students in most programs.* This discount cannot be combined with certain scholarships or discount programs, including the Maryland Completion Scholarship, the Military New Graduate Student Savings Program, the Alumni Succeed Again Scholarship, and the discount for out-of-state community college alliances. Discounted tuition rates may not fall below the standard in-state rate or any special tuition rate offered to eligible activity-duty military servicemembers, their spouses, or dependents.
