UNF Employee Education Program Policies

• Full-time USPS employees, full-time A&P employees and faculty of UNF may register for up to 6 hours of tuition-free courses with some restrictions.
• Part-time salaried position employees are eligible to register for up to 3 credit hours of course work.
• See the Employee Educational Assistance Program Policy for more details.
• Participants may register online via myWings or in person at One-Stop Student Services, located in Ann and David Hicks Hall, Building 53, Suite 1700.
• The Employee Education Scholarship is included in "Estimated Financial Aid" on the student's bill. It will post along with any other pending aid and the student can assume that any remaining balance should be paid. Failure to submit the form by the deadline will result in the student being fee liable for all courses for which they have registered. There are no exceptions to this policy.
• The scholarship funds will disburse to your UNF account to pay down any remaining account balance owed to the University for the term by the fourth week of classes. During the summer term, disbursement to your account will be delayed until the new fiscal year begins in July.

What does the UNF Employee Education Program NOT cover:

• Tuition will NOT be waived for the following types of courses: non-credit, sponsored-credit, audited courses, and Professional and Lifelong Learning (formerly Continuing Education) offerings.
• Tuition will NOT be waived for courses that are required as part of a self-supporting program. Self-supporting programs currently offered at UNF are the RN-BSN Bridge Track (online 8-week) program, the Post-MSN Doctor of Nursing Practice (8-week) program, and the MS Nutrition and Dietetics Non-Internship (online traditional semester) program.
• Additional fees NOT covered include, but are not limited to: lab fees, Week of Welcome fee, Osprey ID Card fee, Orientation fee, Distance Learning fee, or the state-mandated Repeat Surcharge and Excess Hours fees.
• The EEP program does NOT cover costs above in-state tuition and fees. Resident Aliens and Non-Florida Residents must pay the out-of-state portion of their tuition.

• Continued participation requires individuals remain in good standing academically, as defined by the undergraduate student UNF policy and the graduate student UNF Policy.
• Designations such as withdraw (W) or incomplete (I) will not satisfy the requirements for continued participation and will result in the employee’s loss of eligibility to participate in the program for the subsequent semester.
