Note for Returning Students: Complete steps 2, 3, 4, and 6 before each term to continue your enrollment at UMGC and to receive tuition benefits.

1

Apply for admission to UMGC: Complete the online application for admission. It typically takes about 10 minutes. On the admission application, select “GEICO” as your employer. This step is required for first-time students only.

2

Complete the EdAssist Tuition Assistance Application: GEICO associates must complete and submit this application to EdAssist. On the application, make sure to select the "direct bill" option. Once your application is approved, you will receive a Letter of Credit.

3

Provide your Letter of Credit each term: You will need to submit your signed Letter of Credit and UMGC student ID number to cls@umgc.edu as soon as you register for courses. The Letter of Credit will allow you to defer your tuition and will enable EdAssist to pay UMGC directly.

4

Verify your employment: Complete a tuition benefits verification form for each term that you plan to enroll in courses. Be sure to fill out the proper form. UMGC has a separate verification form for employees/members and spouses/dependents.

5

Earn credit for your education and eligible experience: Submit your official transcripts from any previous institutions of higher education. This step is required for first-time students only.

6

Register for classes: Once you're admitted to UMGC, you will receive a student ID (EmplID) so you can register for courses online. Check the UMGC schedule of classes to view courses, and then register for classes online using the MyUMGC Student Portal. You cannot register for classes held at on-site GEICO locations via the MyUMGC portal. For these classes, you will need to contact the GEICO HR representative listed under the location schedule.
