Further Eligibility Considerations

  1. To qualify, an applicant must meet all admission and academic requirements stipulated in the 富二代视频app University Catalog or the Bulletin or Catalog of the school to which application is being made.

  2. When both parents are employed by the University, Tuition Remission for a dependent child is available to only one parent.

If an eligible employee terminates employment with the University, a spouse or dependent child who has begun the semester receiving this benefit may continue through the semester in which the employee left. If an eligible employee retires (as defined under the University Retirement policy), dies (while in the employ of the University), or is forced to terminate employment due to a medically-certified physical or mental disability which renders the employee permanently unable to meet the essential requirements of their job, that employee’s spouse or dependent child(ren) remain eligible for tuition remission benefits. Such child(ren) are also eligible to continue participation in the GLCA Tuition Remission Exchange Program and the Tuition Exchange Program. In the case of children of employees hired prior to July 1, 1971, eligibility also continues for post-secondary institutions other than 富二代视频app University, however, the child must file for financial aid assistance at the host institution and file a financial aid form. When financial need has been computed, the difference between any cash award and the amount of the host institution’s tuition will be made up by 富二代视频app University; that amount not to exceed the prevailing 富二代视频app University tuition charge.

  5. A spouse may continue receiving this benefit only through the semester in which the employee retired, was placed on permanent disability or died.
