Going back to school shouldn’t cost you everything else.

EDU4LESS partners with accredited colleges to give working adults partial scholarships and negotiated tuition discounts — typically 5–20% off, every semester, for as long as you’re enrolled.

Why We Exist

Adults deserve a real shot at their degree — without a second mortgage.

EDU4LESS was founded by Greg Miller, a 20-year police officer with the Harrisonburg, VA Police Department who watched fellow officers struggle to pay for their own education as working adults. Today, we provide partial, semester-by-semester scholarships toward an undergraduate or graduate degree at one of our accredited partner colleges.

“While traditional college students have access to many scholarships and financial aid options, working adults pursuing a degree later in life often find little support.”

— Greg Miller, Founder

Every director at EDU4LESS is an unpaid volunteer with a full-time job. We partner with Approved Colleges, LLC to handle onboarding, verification, and reporting — so our full focus stays on getting savings into students’ hands, semester after semester.

“My scholarship covered enough that I stopped choosing between rent and tuition. I finally finished the degree I started fifteen years ago.”
