Tuition Remission Benefits for You

Tell me more about...
Tuition Remission Benefits:
Course scheduled during working hours

The effect on your tuition remission benefits in the event your employment ends depends on the date you were hired.

As an eligible employee you are entitled to 100% tuition remission for the first four credit hours and 90% tuition remission for the next four credit hours of courses you take each semester. This includes graduate and undergraduate courses.

If You Were Hired on or Before June 30, 1985
If your employment ends before the first day Instruction Begins you will be required to pay the full tuition for all courses taken that semester.

If your employment ends after the first day instruction begins but before the Final Exam End Date for the semester, your benefits will continue until the end of the semester.

If You Were Hired on or after July 1, 1985
If your employment ends before the Final Exam End Date or the End of Session Date for the semester, you will be required to pay full tuition for all courses taken that semester. If you are involuntarily terminated from your position, no payment will be due.

* The first day "Instruction Begins" for the semester is defined as the date published in the Boston University Office of the University Registrar Official Academic Calendar: Charles River.

** The "Final Exam End Date" or the "End of Session" date for the semester is defined as the date published in the Boston University Office of the University Registrar Official Academic Calendar: Charles River. For the fall and spring semesters, it is the "final exam end date"; for summer session, it is the Summer II "end of session" date.
