Apply to ASU: You must complete the SCAP ASU application, supply needed documentation such as prior transcripts and meet ASU’s acceptance criteria. Your enrollment coach can walk you through each step along the way. Secure financing: Submit a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), and may qualify for need-based financial aid. You will receive an automatic, up-front 42% College Achievement Plan (CAP) scholarship applied toward the cost of your tuition once you enroll. Your financial-aid counselor can help you apply. Visit fafsa.ed.gov to get started, and be sure to request that a copy be sent to ASU (school code 001081). Register for classes: Once you’re admitted to your degree program, an academic advisor will help you choose classes and make an academic plan to carry you all the way to graduation. Get ready: Before classes start complete ASU 10: Connect–ASU Orientation (created just for Starbucks partners!). This is a brief orientation to ASU and online learning that gives you the tools to succeed in achieving your academic goals. Start classes: Now you’re set up for success—it’s time to focus on the rigorous and rewarding classes you are taking with ASU’s award-winning faculty. Get your reimbursement in your Starbucks paycheck. Your reimbursements will automatically appear in your paycheck before the end of the semester—you don’t have to fill out additional forms or take extra steps to make it happen. Please see the program document for what’s included in your reimbursement. A few words of friendly advice: Be smart with your money. Remember that your reimbursements just cover the portion of your tuition and mandatory fees that was left for you to pay above out-of-pocket to ASU —you can take student loans to cover other expenses, including textbooks, class fees, laptops, and living expenses, but you won’t be reimbursed for those and the loan will be your responsibility. We encourage you to apply each reimbursement toward the next semester’s tuition or anything you owe in student loans.
