UConn offers certain employees (UCPEA, AAUP, and Managerial/Confidential) an undergraduate tuition waiver benefit for their dependent children who attend UConn. The deadline for eligible employees to apply for the Fall 2023 semester is June 1, 2023. More information on the Dependent Child Tuition Waiver benefit can be found on the HR website: https://hr.uconn.edu/dependent-child-tuition-waiver/
Applications for the Dependent Child Tuition Waiver are only accepted online and must be submitted by June 1, 2023. Completed Dependent Child Tuition Waiver applications route to the appropriate offices automatically.
To access the online waiver application, please go to the application form and follow the directions.
You will need to use your NetID and your child’s Student ID. You will also need to submit a copy of your child’s full-length birth certificate to Human Resources (fax 860.486.0378) if a copy is not already on file.
Key Points:
The Dependent Child Tuition Waiver covers only the tuition component of an eligible dependent’s course fee. It will not cover any room and board charges, or any other assessed fees.
A separate waiver request must be submitted for each child, each semester.
The eligible employee must be employed a minimum of 50% to be eligible for a dependent child tuition waiver. Less than 100% employment requires a waiver to be prorated to the current percentage of employment (from 50% – 100%).
The student who will be benefiting from the waiver must be the dependent child of an eligible employee and less than 24 years of age for the entire calendar year in which the child will receive the waiver.
The benefit applies to Fall and Spring semesters only - it does not apply to Winter or Summer sessions.
The student must be a matriculated undergraduate student at UConn.
Most study abroad programs have no tuition component, or a tuition component that is considerably less than the UConn tuition fee. The waiver will equal the actual amount of the tuition charge for the student’s program. Please check with Education Abroad for the specifics of your dependent’s particular Study Abroad Program.
