It used to be that Domino's Pizza had a school assistance program. I don't know if they still do. McDonald's has a tuition assistance program but I believe it is only for Hispanic individuals.
Any national business may have a program that helps with higher education. The trick is to ask when you are interviewed for the job or talk to some of the employees before applying.
If you need a job to help pay for school, why not look for one that will also pay part of your tuition? National companies that supplement wages with tuition money include UPS, FedEx, and Home Depot. Do a little research before you apply for a job and see if they have tuition assistance. If it's a local company you are interested in, see if they will assist with tuition if your classes or major will better your abilities at the job. For example a local accounting firm is much more likely to consider tuition assistance for an employing actively earning a degree in accounting as opposed to someone pursuing a degree in theater.
