Hi Eugene, I really appreciate your support and comments on my videos throughout this year. Thank you very much. And I agree. If there's any Uber driver that has the time to maintain their Uber Pro rewards out there, they should definitely jump on the free college for themselves or a loved one who is eager to receive higher education!

@@fyffitness hmm, that’s strange. Upfront pricing has been in my market for what seems like forever and it always made sense in a business perspective for the passenger and driver.

@@TheRideshareCoach so I’m in Atlanta, and to accept 85% of the trips here you have to accept a lot of trash trips. Every other trip is a loss.

do you have to keep your Diamomd/Platinum/Gold status every year in order to get free tuition ? or once I enroll can I stop driving uber and get the 4 year free tuition?

@TheRideshareCoach

10 ай бұрын

That's a very good question. Yes you need to keep your Uber Pro status active. There is one sort of "hack" though. If you reach Diamond then you get a feature where you can get a "free" Uber pro status period if yours expires. You can get about 6 months of Uber Pro status without even having to drive at all if that makes sense. So my advice would be to hit Diamond first before getting the tuition. Diamond has many good perks and if you do need 6 months off of pure studying you can do that as well which I did at one point. However, generally it's pretty easy to do a few rides per week to keep the status as well.

Congratulations! 🎉 I’m thinking of doing this as well I’m so close, but not close enough for them to pay when I want to start. Do you know if they allow you to redeem this award after you have already applied? For instance if you want to apply it to your sophomore year, or do you need to initially sign up with the Uber reward?

Thank you!!! You should watch my entire video! I talk about how I transferred an entire 2 year AA degree earned on campus in Hawaii over to ASU online. Technically I started as a Junior if we are looking at just credits, but it was my 4rth year attending college overall! You need to apply for FAFSA(pell grants) first and Uber covers the rest. Uber pays for your application fee of $70 too! Watch my vid! LOL.

I just wondered if you have to apply to ASU with the Uber Reward initially to redeem it or if you could redeem it after you’ve already applied and started taking classes online, seeing I don’t qualify at the moment but will soon. I have no transferable credits so I’d be starting at a freshman level. But thanks for the reply.

Oh, Hey thanks for watching first of all. And as far as tuition coverage goes it doesn’t matter if you already applied to ASU or any other school or not. Uber will pay for any tuition costs as long as you are working towards an associates or bachelors degree and you can sign up anytime. For example, I took a semester off and I re-applied for tuition coverage and they still covered me.

So I understand Uber covers tuition 100% but what are the fees and how much are they? For out of state students?
