Cal State Fullerton and Fullerton College have joined Disney Aspire, The Walt Disney Company’s education investment and career development program that offers 100% tuition paid upfront for hourly employees.
CSUF programs will be available to more than 29,500 hourly employees eligible to participate in Disney Aspire in the state of California, more than 3,400 of whom are already enrolled.
The program covers 100% of tuition up front and also reimburses employees for applicable books and fees. Disney employees will have access to a variety of in-person and online courses at Cal State Fullerton or Fullerton College, located about seven miles from Disneyland Resort in Anaheim.
