Yes it is for real. I know several of my fellow drivers at Knight that are either going to college themselves or sending their kids through.
As far as I know, the program is available to any knight driver's family. No strings attached that I can remember aside from making sure it's a partner college and there may be a tuition cap. For the online programs for driver's, I think you have to maintain a certain GPA if I recall correctly.
There's information on Knights website and on its YouTube channel. Pretty significant deal if that's a motivation for someone.
Btw, I'm not trying to sell knight or come off like a recruiter, just happen to have some knowledge of their program on it as i work there and was incredulous about it too lol. Hope it helps
With the cost of college tuition these days, that's a pretty big deal. If I had a kid(s) at that age, I would certainly be looking pretty hard at any company offering this.

I have been seeing recruitment materials for Knight advertising college tuition for drivers and their children. I have a pair of teenaged daughters so this is appealing to me. Anyone have experience with it? Is it for real? What’s the catch / requirements?
