An Actor's Equity Association (AEA) union member with a wife and two kids
An 18-year-old who's "100% union made" with a mother from the Writer's Guild and a father who's a member of NABET/CWA
And a young woman who wants business to understand the difference between "management" and leadership

All of these people have received Union Plus Scholarships!
Since 1992, the Union Plus Scholarship Program has awarded over $2.4 million to over 1,700 union families pursuing post-secondary education.

You'll be inspired by viewing videos from Union Plus Scholarship recipients to learn about their educational goals
and commitment to the labor movement.

What are Union Plus benefits -- and what do they offer students?

The AFL-CIO created Union Plus benefits in 1986 to provide union members and their families with valuable consumer benefits -- including financial services, a legal service, scholarships, consumer education information, discounts and more.

By using the exclusive buying power of unions, Union Plus offers valuable, discounted products and services exclusively to union families.

Union members and their children who are pursuing higher education should:

Find out about ALL of your union's Union Plus benefits.

Why pay full price for student necessities when your union membership entitles family members with savings?

Save on:

Budget truck rentals
AT&T Wireless discounts -- including iPhone plans
Motor Club -- less expensive and more comprehensive than AAA
Dell discounts on laptops, PDAs, printers, plasma screens, digital cameras, etc.
And more!

Did you know...?

The Project on Student Debt reports an option for students carrying tuition debt. Starting in July 2009, grads can adjust their repayment schedule to better align with their actual income (USA Today 5.19.09).

The program is designed so that students with Stafford loans will pay no more than 10% of their monthly income, and if they fall below 150% of the official poverty line, they'll not have to make any payments until their income improves.

If after 25 years the loans are not paid off, the remaining debt will be forgiven. Unfortunately, students with private loans will not be eligible.
