To become eligible, employees must work for Mueller Family McDonald's restaurants for a minimum of 90 days before the semester begins at a minimum of 16 hours per week.  Employees must sign an agreement before utilizing this benefit.   Once the agreement is in place, Lackawanna will defer the tuition balance.  Students will see this balance on their account until the end of the semester.  If, at this time, they are still eligible for the scholarship, Lackawanna will send the bill to Mueller Family McDonald's for payment.    If at any point in the semester, or in the 90 days following the semester, the employee becomes ineligible, they will be responsible for their tuition payment.

Employees must complete ALL steps of the process  described in the agreement to remain eligible.
