Policy 04:120
Tuition Waiver

After six months continuous full-time, regular employment, full-time faculty and staff are eligible for full tuition waiver on a space available basis. During the first six months of employment, full-time faculty and staff are eligible for a prorata waiver of tuition, based on the number of months of employment, as of the beginning of the academic term(s) for which the waiver is requested.

An eligible employee may take one course per term during the employee's normal working hours, if the supervisor certifies that enrollment will not disrupt the work of the unit involved. Additional courses must be taken on the employee's "own time" (e.g., before or after normal working hours or by using annual leave).

Retired faculty and staff with emeritus status or who were employed full-time for ten years or more are eligible for tuition waiver in one course per term on a space available basis.

The appropriate form for requesting a tuition waiver is available from the Office of Human Resources.
