Tuition and Fees Reduction for Staff and Academic Employees



POLICY

Students, who are career employees at UCI, UCI Medical Center, or another University of California campus, are eligible for a two-thirds reduction of the Student Services fee, the University Tuition and Fees, and campus-based fees. This applies for up to 9 units or 3 regular session university courses per quarter, whichever provides the greatest benefit. The Registrar's Office is responsible for producing a waiver on an approved Employee Application for Reduced Fees.

Examples of what is permitted:

  • 3 courses totaling 9 units
  • 3 courses totaling 9.5 units
  • 3 courses totaling 12 units
  • 4 courses totaling 9 units
  • 5 courses totaling 9 units

Examples of what is not permitted:

  • 4 courses totaling 9.5 units
  • 4 courses totaling 10 units

IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR THE STUDENT (Career Employee)


  1. Employees must follow the university application process and be accepted for admission in a UCI degree program in order to receive this fee reduction.
  2. Approval of the Employee Application for Reduced Fees is for one quarter only. A new application must be completed for each quarter the student desires reduced tuition and fees.
  3. A student who files an application is not eligible to receive a tuition and fees reduction for part-time status also, and vice versa.
  4. Graduate level courses are subject to taxation. The Technical and Miscellaneous Reform Act of 1998 (TAMRA) has several areas which could impact a UCI employee who receives reduced fees and/or financial assistance for various courses. University of California undergraduate courses do not fall within TAMRA's provisions.
  5. Full-time, career status employees who wish to attend UCI Continuing Education courses (excludes Concurrent Enrollment) receive a reduction in the tuition and fees for some courses. Current UCI Continuing Education policies apply.
