ADMINISTRATION OF THE TUITION BENEFIT PROGRAM
|
|
|
|
|
The Graduate School administers the Graduate Tuition Benefit Program. Verification of a student's TBP eligibility is the department's responsibility. Note: If a graduate student received a conditional tuition credit for the semester but (a) withdrew from courses, dropping below the minimum 9 credit hours; (b) received less than the minimal financial support; (c) failed to provide evidence of acceptable SPEAK test scores (as applicable); or (d) in any way did not meet all requirements or restrictions associated with any of the TBP graduate student components or Graduate School policy, the tuition credit will be rescinded. The student will be billed for tuition and fees at the full, relevant rate for that semester.

Students are not eligible to receive a tuition benefit after a semester has ended if they were not entered on the Web prior to the date the 'state's registration census'(15th day of classes) is taken. It is a department's responsibility to enter eligible students on the TBP Web page in a timely manner prior to the 15th day of the semester the student expects to receive the benefit. No retroactive benefits are awarded. With a petition from the student's department chair to the dean of the Graduate School, exceptions will be considered for personal emergencies such as illness or family emergency.
