Tuition Benefits

Tuition Remission for Employees
Upon hire, full-time employees are entitled to tuition remission of up to 8 credit hours per semester. Employees may also use tuition remission benefits for non-credit courses offered through the University's Continuing Education program based on the undergraduate tuition rate ($330 per credit hour as of Spring 2007).  Part-time staff appointed to a position which lasts six months or longer and who are regularly scheduled to work twenty (20) hours or more per week are also eligible for tuition remission benefits. For more information and forms, contact Human Resources.
