New Process for Accessing Your Tuition Benefits
Starting in Fall 2024, AdventHealth University will be utilizing a new process through Guild’s Direct Payment Program. As a Direct Pay Partner, AdventHealth University is committed to providing a seamless experience, ensuring you can focus on what matters most - your education. Guild will still facilitate payment to AdventHealth University on your behalf; however, the steps to do so are changing.
For the Summer 2024 term, the tuition facilitation process will remain the same. If you are approved for Summer 2024 funding and maintain eligibility on the start date, no further action is required to receive Summer 2024 funding up to your cap or fully funded amount.
We are here to support all team members who will be starting or continuing enrollment at AdventHealth University for the Fall 2024 term. Here’s how you can efficiently manage your journey with us:
Step 1 (New Students Start Here)
Click HERE to Apply to AHU today! AHU offers a wide range of eligible degree programs, and the following programs are fully funded by the annual benefit limit for full-time AdventHealth Team Members, provided the full balance is available:

The AHU Admissions team is available to guide you through the application process.
Step 2 (Returning Students Start Here)
Accepted students at AdventHealth University are eligible to apply for tuition funding through Guild’s Direct Payment Program beginning 30 days before the term starts.
During this Guild application process, you must apply for a Sponsorship Letter for Direct Payment up to 30 days before the term starts and no later than the day your term begins. Approval for the Sponsorship Letter by Guild is contingent upon acceptance to AdventHealth University for the desired term. If approved by Guild, you will receive your Sponsorship Letter via email.
Guild support is available if you have any questions with the Sponsorship Letter process.
Step 3
Submit the Sponsorship Letter to AdventHealth University before the term starts. This letter can be emailed to the AHU Business Office at AHU.businessoffice@ahu.edu. This will ensure that AHU invoices Guild for your tuition.
If you are a returning student, it is possible that your sponsorship letter will show inadequate funding due to the annual cap. Rest assured that this will not impact your studies, and you should proceed with course registration. AHU will be covering your tuition expenses.
Step 4
After your term ends, you will submit information to Guild about your classes (i.e., course outcomes) to verify you are meeting the academic eligibility requirements outlined in AdventHealth's policy. You can find your itemized billing and grade details from AHU on the Employer Receipt page by logging into my.AHU.edu.
To submit this information, navigate to the Direct Payment Program page on the Guild platform and complete the step to share your results.
Students will need to follow Steps 2 - 4 for all future terms in which they are enrolling at AdventHealth University. Not to worry! You will receive reminder emails from AdventHealth University when it is time to initiate this process.
