The employee tuition waiver benefit allows eligible employees and their dependents to have tuition waived up to three times per year: spring semester, summer semester, and fall semester. The available credits are a pool to be split between the employee and dependents. The waiver covers up to six credits for employees and up to 10 credits per semester for dependents. If both employee and dependent are using the waiver, no more than six of the ten available credits may be used by the employee. The available credits are a pool to be split between the employee and dependent.

Approval Process

• For employees, the supervisor must first validate and approve the Tuition Waiver submission online, which will then automatically route to Human Resources and Student Financials for approval.
• For dependents, the Tuition Waiver is approved by Human Resources then Student Financials.

Before Human Resources can approve a tuition waiver for your dependent, some supplemental documents are required.

• Dependent child: The employee must submit a copy of their dependent’s birth certificate and if the dependent is claimed on the tax return, a copy of first page of the tax return, or a tax return transcript is required.
• Dependent spouse: The employee must submit a copy of the marriage certificate and if their taxes are filed jointly, a copy of first page of the tax return, or a tax return transcript is required.
