UUP Program for Tuition Assistance (100% Waiver) |
The current agreement between the State of New York and
United University Professions agree to continue the existing tuition assistance
program to allow employees in the Professional Services Negotiating Unit to enroll in
courses on a space-available basis without payment of tuition. The program is described
below and subject to the following requirements:
- Available to employees in the State University Professional
Services Negotiation Unit only.
- Enrollment is space available. The University determines when space is
available. Employees may enroll in credit-bearing courses offered at State
operated units of State University.
Credit free courses offered through the Office of Lifelong Learning are not
applicable. Tuition paying students will receive preference.
The following courses do not qualify for space
available designation and cannot be exempted at 100% waiver: independent study,
course by contract, special project, student teaching, courses where all slots are reserved by
instructor permission, thesis.
- Employees may enroll in a maximum of one course per semester
or summer.
- All fees, other than tuition, shall be paid by the employee.
Prior outstanding balances must be cleared before the tuition-free application can be
processed.
- Employees must meet course prerequisites and academic
regulations.
- Minimum enrollment requirements established by the University
as a condition for offering a course shall not be affected by students interested in
enrolling in a course on a space-available basis.
- The course registration program described herein is distinct
from and does not in any way diminish or limit access by employees to programs of waiver
presently in place.
- Employees must meet admission
requirements. Those
who are not continuing students (registered in consecutive semesters) or already accepted
by the
Admissions Office must file appropriate application forms with the Office of
Admissions (undergraduate) or the
Graduate School (graduate) in accordance
with admission deadlines in order to be admitted prior to registration.
- Changing from one option to another is not permitted. Once a
student has registered through the regular 50% waiver program, s/he cannot request change to
the 100% waiver.
- Buffalo State employees registering at schools other than
Buffalo State
should contact the appropriate college/university for registration dates and procedure.
The contact person for the program on the Buffalo State College campus is
Cynthia Fasla, Registrar's Office, Moot Hall 210, telephone 878-4907.
