Graduates that fit the criteria for the VW Grad Program are eligible for up to a $500 bonus2 on a new Volkswagen vehicle when they purchase or lease through Volkswagen credit. A member of our financial services team will go through the bonus in great detail when determining your eligibility. Remember, you or your recent graduate may be eligible for the VW Grad Program for up to two years after walking across the stage. Proof of employment and other eligibility requirements do apply, as those without employment or without an agreement for immediate future employment are not eligible as such.
