As part of its new Uber Pro program, the popular ridesharing app is offering the cost of tuition for its top drivers or for their families. However, the Uber Pro tuition program does have a few limitations. Firstly, all programs must be taken through Arizona State University. Second, the tuition only applies to online classes and nothing on campus. That being said, the offer can be applied to any family member, including a spouse, domestic partner, child, sibling, parent, legal guardian or dependent.
In addition to paid tuition, the Uber Pro program will also implement a reward system for drivers. Functioning off points, the system offers points for completing trips and these points can be turned in for certain offers. To apply for the program, drivers will have to maintain a 4.85 rating or above.
