Once you have selected your program, please email exed@smu.edu to ask for the SMU employee discount code to use during enrollment to receive your discount.

However, employees enrolled in taxable SMU Cox Executive Education programs are eligible for an annual IRS exclusion for the first $5,250 of cumulative tuition benefits or discounts each calendar year (note: not SMU’s academic year). If you have questions about taxable limits or tuition benefits for other SMU programs, please contact tuitionbenefits@smu.edu.
