University of Rochester Employees

For University tuition benefits policies and forms, visit the tuition benefits homepage. The tuition waiver form alone does not register you for a course; you must still complete the registration process outlined above. Courses covered under the University of Rochester's tuition benefits package must be completed with a satisfactory grade in order for the course to be paid for by the University.  Courses that are not dropped prior to the first day of classes will be paid for by the student according to the University's refund schedule.  In addition, taking an incomplete in a course will result in the course not being paid for until the course is complete - late fees and account holds may result. UR tuition benefits are limited to courses completed within six months after the end of the course. 

Please note: If you are utilizing tuition benefits for graduate or non-credit courses, your courses may be taxable. Please visit the Taxability of Employee Tuition Benefits webpage for information to help you determine whether graduate tuition assistance benefits are taxable and how much tax will be withheld from your paycheck.

Dual Degree in Nursing Students

Course fees for all Online Prerequisite Courses are waived for Dual Degree in Nursing students. If you are registering for an Online Prerequisite Course as a Dual Degree in Nursing student, you will need to email the Registrar to register for courses and complete the School of Nursing Scholarship Form. (Costs relating to texts and lab kits required for the courses will not be covered.)
