Did you know Target is paying 100% of their employee’s college expenses at some US-based schools? With this new debt-free education assistance benefit, more than 340,000 employees at eligible stores and distribution centers were able to choose from 250 programs at more than 40 schools and universities nationwide!
Debt-Free Degrees
Employees who work at Target stores, distribution centers, and headquarters across the country are qualified on their first day with the company with no out-of-pocket costs! For those seeking a different degree, the company pays up to $5,250 for undergraduate degrees and up to $10,000 for master’s degrees within its available network of schools, which include the University of Arizona, Oregon State University, Morehouse College, and Paul Quinn.
Along with associate and undergraduate degrees, employees also have access to numerous certificates and boot camp programs. Target has also partnered with the education platform Guild Education and invested $200 million within the next four years to make it all possible!

is this only citizens or for international students too?
Hi there Gousia! Only legal citizens or permanent residents of the United States are eligible. Hope that answers it.
So does Macy’s! I’m working on a Bachelors in Business debt free
Thanks for sharing this with the community, Grace!
Would be nice if they hired from age 16, not 18…
I just checked in their website that they hire at 16 and up excluding in security and distribution which is a requirement to be 18.
Incredible perk!
It would be nice if anyone who works at Target could let us know if they’re happy working at Target
I think Starbucks does something similar
Omg this is an AMAZING opportunity for everyone, specially for our youth! Great job Target 👏🏼🙏🏼🙌🏼
