Introducing JetBlue Scholars
There are thousands of JetBlue crewmembers without a college degree. With our mission to inspire humanity, we set out to change that. JetBlue Scholars is a new way for employers to help their people succeed. We partner with online course providers and institutions of higher learning to make earning a degree simpler and more affordable than ever.
Our Motivation
Our crewmembers told us about all the barriers they face. We designed JetBlue Scholars to clear the way.
High Cost of College Degree
Scheduling Challenges
Balancing Work and Life
Access to Resources
Administrative Clutter and Noise
How It Works
It's easy. All our Scholars need to do is learn.
STEP 1: CLAIM Credit
Students can get credit for courses completed at other colleges, licenses and certifications, and even on the job experience, including JetBlue training.
STEP 2: Take Courses
Take JetBlue-approved courses online for college credit. Students learn at their own pace, anytime and anywhere from a mobile device or computer. JetBlue covers the cost and helps students select the courses they need to graduate.
STEP 3: Attend A Partner University
Students take the final semester online at a JetBlue partner university. All Crewmembers receive discounted tuition, and scholarships may be available for those who qualify.
“It means a lot to me to actually get a degree. It is something that I have wanted to do since I was 19.”
“ I wanted to know how I could get started right away because finishing my degree is something I've always wanted to do."
