We know you’re committed to giving your child a good education.
And you can count us in.

How would you like to start saving money now for your child’s future education? Bob Jones University and BJU Press have made this possible with Cash for College.

What’s the deal?
If you are a member of AHE (the Academy of Home Education), you’ll receive $1 tuition credit for every $2 you spend on BJU Press materials, Distance Learning products (excluding satellite equipment), Testing & Evaluation services, SoundForth products, JourneyForth and Bob Jones University books, and ShowForth DVDs. Tuition credit may be applied to University courses taken on campus.

Formerly, anyone who purchased BJU Press materials since 1999 was eligible for the Cash for College program. However, as of July 1, 2007, Cash for College will become a benefit of the Academy of Home Education—the scholarship program will be exclusive to AHE members. Nonmembers who have participated in Cash for College previously will retain their balances from prior to June 30, 2007. Members of AHE and those who join AHE after June 30 will continue to receive credit toward tuition at Bob Jones University.

If your high school student (grades 10-12) has already accrued Cash for College funds but is not currently enrolled in the Academy of Home Education, you may complete a late application as long as the AHE office receives it by August 1, 2007. After August 1, 2007, all applications must be received before the end of a student’s ninth grade year. Standard AHE acceptance procedures and policies apply.

How do I get credit?
Become a member of AHE. Purchase BJU Press materials at conventions or directly by telephone, fax, mail, or online. Materials purchased from the Educator’s Marketplace in Greenville, SC will also be counted towards Cash for College.

How do I find out how much credit I have earned?
Your Cash for College balance appears on your “My Account” page.

Who can use the tuition credit?
The children of the purchaser can use this credit when they are enrolled in two regular semesters (fall and spring) at BJU.

How much credit can I use at one time?
You may use as much credit as you wish once per school year.

Can I count purchases made by extended family?
Credit will be tallied according to purchasers' name only. (For example, only the purchases made in the name of John Q. Public and Mrs. John Q. Public will count toward the total credit for John Q. Public’s children.)

I have a Cash for College balance, but I’m not an AHE member. Can I still use my balance towards BJU tuition?
Yes, you may use your balance for tuition credit whether or not you’re a member of AHE. However, after July 1, 2007, only AHE members will continue to accrue additional Cash for College funds as they make purchases with BJU Press.

My child is enrolled at BJU. How do I use my Cash for College credit?
Contact the Financial Aid Office at BJU by phone at 864.242.5100, Ext. 3040 or by email at openacct@bju.edu. You’ll need to provide your BJU Press account number, your student’s name and BJU ID number, and the amount of your Cash for College balance that you’d like to transfer.
