Applicable Waiting Time
Tuition Waiver benefits eligibility must first be established to qualify. Eligible employees and their spouses may apply for the waiver 90 days following the employee's date of hire or following the employee's change to benefits eligible status. Dependents of newly eligible employees may utilize the waiver after a 6 month waiting period. Employees eligible for this benefit cannot be considered a dependent of another employee for purposes of the tuition waiver.
Credit Limits, Benefit Limits, and Limits on Class Times
All persons (employee, spouse or dependent child) receiving a tuition waiver will be limited to one degree under the benefit. Eligible employees who earned a degree because of their parent's or spouse's employment eligibility for the Tuition Waiver may earn one additional degree based on their own employment status with the University and vice versa. Eligible employees may take two classes (6 hours) per semester and no more than 18 hours per calendar year. The only exception to the 6 hour limitation is in the case that it is required that a lab be taken concurrently with a class and the total credit hours actually equals 7 hours. Eligible spouses and dependents do not have a credit limit.
The tuition waiver covers up to 100% of the tuition for most courses offered by the University. The exception to this is the Doctor of Business Administration (DBA) program. The tuition waiver covers 15% of tuition for the DBA program.
The tuition waiver may not be used in conjunction with any other University scholarships or any University sponsored community education programs. Full-time Staff and Regular and Affiliate Faculty may take only one class during normal work hours (8:00 a.m. – 5 p.m.) with their supervisor's approval. Part-time employees (employees working 30-39 hours a week) must attend classes outside the normal work hours of their position.

Full-time Employees (40 hours per week or more) | Waiver for employee, eligible spouse and eligible dependents | Employee & Spouse – 90 days from employee's date of hire or benefits eligibility. Child/ren – 6 months from employee's date of hire or benefits eligibility. |
Employees working 30-39 hours per week | Waiver for employee only | Employee – 90 days from date of hire or benefits eligibility. |
