waivers

employees
Employees receive a 100% waiver of the instructional fee. (The waiver is pro-rated if the employee is part-time). General fees may be waived if coursework is a requirement of the employee's position. The department must provide an explanation of how the coursework relates to the minimum education, training, experience or skill required for the position.
  This is granted on a course-by-course basis, not for entire degree programs. If the coursework is not a requirement of the employee's position, the instructional fees will be covered at 100%, but the employee will be responsible for the general fees.

With approval from their department or planning unit head, employees may take up to 10 credit hours of undergraduate and eight credit hours of graduate courses per quarter.  An employee may take one course during working hours and one additional course during non-working hours with supervisory approval.  Additionally, a Distance Learning course or weekend workshop may be added with proper approval.

Full-time employees should not register as full-time students with out proper approval. Any employee wishing to do so needs to make sure their department approval is noted on the educational benefits request form, this will then be considered for approval by the Assistant Vice President for Administration for Human Resources.

Eligible employees on layoff status or approved leave of absence are qualified during the period of layoff or leave.

dependents
Eligible dependents receive a 100% waiver of the instructional fee. The general fee is the responsibility of the student. (The waiver is pro-rated if the employee is part-time).

Dependents of employees may take as many courses as academically permissible.
