Employer Reimbursement Plan

The University of North Florida’s Employer Reimbursement Plan is designed for graduate students whose employers offer reimbursement for tuition and related fees. Because employer reimbursement is typically provided after a term has ended, this plan allows eligible students to defer the payment of their tuition and fees until after the semester ends. 

To participate, submit a completed Employer Reimbursement Plan form by email or deliver it in person to Student Financial Services, Bldg. 53, Suite 1100, on or before the payment deadline each semester. Forms received after 5:00 PM on the payment deadline cannot be accepted. Please refer to the Academic Calendar for dates and deadlines.

Questions about the Employer Reimbursement Plan should be directed to Student Financial Services. 

Employer Reimbursement Plan Application

Eligibility

Participation in the Employer Reimbursement Plan is available to graduate students who:
  • Are enrolled in a UNF degree program
  • Are in good academic standing
  • Have an employer that will reimburse all or part of their tuition and fees upon successful completion of coursework
Eligibility must be verified through documentation from the employer confirming the student's eligibility for tuition and/or fee reimbursement. Students with a negative account history, outstanding balances, or insufficient employer documentation are not eligible to participate. 

Application & Deadline

If you wish to take advantage of the Employer Reimbursement Plan, you must complete the Employer Reimbursement Plan Application and submit it on or before the Fee Payment Deadline each term.

Applicant: Please complete Sections A–B and submit to your employer for verification. 

Employer: Please review Sections A–B, complete Section C, and return to the student for submission to UNF.

Alternatively, you may submit an approved company tuition reimbursement form or similar official document with the same information as Section C.

Once your application is accepted and your registration is complete, we will place a deferment on your account reflecting the expected payment from your employer. This will prevent late charges from accumulating on your account and also allow you to register for the next term during the early registration period. You will still be expected to pay any tuition and fees that are not covered by your employer by the normal due date. For example, if your employer covers only 75% of your tuition, you must pay the remaining 25% plus fees. Payment of the portion of your tuition and fees covered by your employer for the specified term will be deferred until 30 days after the term ends, allowing time for your employer to reimburse you.

Please note that you remain responsible for paying your UNF tuition and fees, regardless of whether your employer ultimately provides reimbursement. UNF does not bill employers directly. To avoid delays, be sure to submit your grades and required documentation to your employer as soon as possible after the semester ends. Late payment fees may be assessed if the portion of tuition and fees that are your responsibility are not paid by the fee payment deadline, or if your account is not paid in full by the deferment deadline.
