Employee Educational Discounts

Terms and Conditions
 

¹ Credits per year: For graduate students, the employee benefit covers up to 6 credits taken during each of the Fall and Spring semesters, and up to 3 credits taken during the Summer semester. For undergraduate students, the benefit covers up to 12 credits taken during each of the Fall and Spring semesters, and up to 6 credits taken during the Summer semester. Any credits taken beyond these limits during a semester will be charged tuition at the normal rate.

² Tax implications: Graduate students who receive tuition benefits exceeding $5,250 per calendar year will be required to pay taxes on the excess amount as the government counts the benefit as taxable income. This does not apply to student employees pursuing undergraduate degrees. There is no graduate-level exclusion for taxes due to the spouse on graduate courses they take.
