With the nation’s current student debt amount hovering around $1.7 trillion, Stride, Inc. is announcing a new partnership to make it easier for recent graduates from K12-powered schools to pursue college, without the usual high expenses.

Stride, Inc. is partnering with the American Public University System (APUS), a higher education institution that provides affordable, high-quality, workforce-relevant, online education, to offer all Stride graduates a 10% tuition grant, bringing the cost to just $315 per credit hour for undergraduates.

Stride graduates, faculty, and staff can use the grants at American Public University (APU) to pursue bachelor’s and master’s degrees (APU is part of APUS, which is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission, an institutional accreditation agency recognized by the U.S. Department of Education).

“We understand the value of pursuing your passion and its positive impact on your life, career, and community. We believe that everyone deserves access to quality higher education. That’s why we offer over 200 online undergraduate, graduate and doctoral degree and certificate programs with monthly program starts,” said Jose Molleja, Vice President, Brand Expansion and Student Success at APU.

“There are significant financial barriers for many families who want their children to go on to college to pursue a degree or career certification after high school,” said Dr. Sherri Wilson, Director of Partnership Development at Stride, Inc. “We’re delighted to partner with American Public University to offer our graduates access to a wide range of post-secondary education with financial peace of mind as they move forward on their career path.”
