Fee Reduction for Staff and Academic Employees Last Updated:  May 08, 2008, 12:59 PM PDT

  1. POLICY:

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

  2. PROCEDURE FOR THE STUDENT
    1. Obtain an Employee Application for Reduced Fees by visiting:
      1. Academic Personnel (354 Aldrich Hall)
      2. Human Resources (2500 Berkeley Place)
      3. www.hr.uci.edu/sd/redfee.html
    2. Complete the form.
    3. Obtain signatures.
      1. For Staff employees:
        • Department Head
        • Human Resources Representative
      2. For Academic Employee:
        • Department Chair
        • Associate Executive Vice Chancellor
    4. Return the completed form to the Registrar's Office.
    5. Pay fees to the Central Cashier (228 Aldrich Hall) by the fee payment deadline. (Employee is required to pay one third of the University Registration Fee, the University Educational Fee, and campus-based fees, and the full cost of health insurance.)

  3. IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR THE STUDENT
    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 fees.
    3. A student who files an application is not eligible to receive a fee 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 have impact on UCI employees who receive reduced fees and/or financial assistance for various courses. University of California undergraduate courses do not fall within TAMRA's provisions.
    5. The employee Reduced Fee benefit is not available for Summer Session courses.
    6. Full-time, career status employees who wish to attend UCI Extension courses receive a reduction in the fee for some courses. Current UCI Extension policies apply.
