Tuition Waivers

Who is eligible for a waiver?   One-year-only and one-semester-only employees who are working less than full-time and temporary employees are not eligible for tuition waivers. For additional information on eligibility, refer to page seven of the on-line tuition waiver handbook: www.dist.maricopa.edu/legal/dp/index.htm

Abbreviated Schedule of Eligibility (Subject to Change)

**A spouse or unmarried child less than 24 years old.  Inorder to receive a tuition waier, the qualified employe must be Board approved by the first class meeting.  Dependent children must be less than 24 years old at the time of the first class meeting.

What does the waiver include?

Eligible parties receive a waiver of the credit-hour cost of the course (including out-of-county and out-of-state credit-hour costs). Other fees associated with the course are not waived. Waiver requests may not be used for non-credit courses.

How do I receive a waiver?

Waiver forms are available on line at: www.dist.maricopa.edu/hrweb/download.html. Select and print the appropriate form for your use (employees and active retirees; dependents, adjunct, qualified non-employees). Review the terms and conditions and fill the form out completely; keep a copy for your records and turn the original into the cashier's office at the college where you are registering.

Granting of the waiver is subject to verification of eligibility, which may or may not take place prior to the end of the drop/add period.

I'd like to take a class during my work hours. Is that allowed? 

Employees wishing to take a course during their normal working hours must obtain approval from their supervisor, college president (or designee).
