Tuition Scholarship Program

IMPORTANT: Tuition Scholarship Waivers will not be coded until after the previous term's grades are posted. The Enrollment Services Processing Office will review residency, grades and withdrawal history to determine eligibility. Notification will be made via email for those who are ineligible. If ineligible, you may opt to pay for the courses, or you must drop yourself by the close of the drop/add period.

Registration Dates for Tuition Scholarship Program

 *Note: For new students taking only summer B classes, the form will re-open during the week of add/drop for that part of term. Only summer B submissions will be accepted at that time.*

Dates for other terms can be found on the Academic Calendar. 

Eligibility

Spouse/Dependent/Domestic Partner of full-time support employees, full-time A&P employees, and faculty members who have been employed at UNF for at least six months and are in good standing are eligible to participate. The Tuition Scholarship program is available to Undergraduate and Graduate students.

Florida Residency requirements must be met to be eligible. Resident Aliens and Non-Florida Residents must pay the out-of-state portion of their tuition.

This program is not available to OPS, part time, or temporary personnel.

Employees must complete the Tuition Scholarship Request online by the date listed on the above table.

How to submit a Tuition Scholarship Employee Request online

• Access the Tuition Scholarship Program - Employee Request though Employee Services in Administrative Apps.  Use the drop-down tool to select the term and the student who named you through the Parent Portal.
• The student's current registration will populate on the form for "ranking".  Ranking allows students to choose which courses they want covered by the waiver in the event that they are registering for more courses then their waiver covers. Ranking is required for all registered courses, but the waiver is only applied to the total amount of hours covered by the policy.  Please note that waitlisted courses will not populate until the student is fully registered for the course.   
• Click "submit" after ranking the current coursework.  You will see a "Your ranking has been successfully submitted" message as confirmation.  Please note that an error message will appear if you attempt to apply the same numerical ranking to more than one course.  You will need to supply a new rank to complete the submission.
• You can return to this form to adjust your rankings any time before the waiver submission deadline.  The deadline is consistently set for the end of the Add/Drop period.
• If for any reason a student is not eligible for a waiver for the term you select, you will not be permitted to pull up registration for ranking.  Instead you will receive an error message which will explain the loss of eligibility.
