Board Policy for Tuition Fee Discount

Faculty and Staff Discount for Enrollment Fees
Code of Policies of the Board of Governors
(Chapter 11, Section 11.090)

"Current officers and full-time employees of the university shall be accorded a seventy-five percent reduction in enrollment fees for regular on-campus classes for academic credit at the University. The same reduction shall be accorded to spouses and children of such officers or full-time employees. The same reduction shall be accorded to former full-time employees and to their spouses and children, 1) who are disabled and who have been granted a written leave of absence due to such disability, 2) who have retired and been granted emeritus status, or 3) who completed at least ten years full-time employment service and who were employed on a full-time basis at the time of their death. For the purpose of this policy, the term "officers" mean the members of the Board of Governors and the other persons designated as officers in the bylaws of the Board of Governors, who are in office at the beginning of the applicable classes.  The term "full-time" employees mean the persons employed on a full-time basis at the beginning of the applicable classes. The term "spouse" mean the persons legally married to qualified officers or employees at the beginning of applicable classes. The term "children" means 1) naturally or legally adopted children or 2) step-children who reside in the same home and are legal dependents for income tax purposes. The reduction in enrollment fees is not available for other relatives of officers and employees even though such relatives may live with, be supported by, or be the legal wards of such officers or employees. The reduction in enrollment fees applies only to regular in-state enrollment fees for on-campus classes and does not apply to the charges, such as out-of-state tuition, course overload charges, supplemental class fees, residence hall charges, travel costs, or off-campus course fees."
