Fee Waiver |
Fee waiver (or tuition assistance) entitles eligible Chancellor's Office
employees (and in some cases their spouse, domestic partner or dependent child) to
enroll in courses at any CSU campus and have fees waived or reduced to $1. Here is
a description of the fee waiver program:
Employees
- Eligible Chancellor's Office employees can enroll in up to two courses or six
units (whichever is greater) per term at any CSU campus.
- Certain fees will be fully waived (e.g., application fee, ID card fee,
instructionally related activity fee, health services fee, state university fee).
- Other fees will be reduced to $1 (e.g., student body association fee,
student body center fee and health facilities fee).
All employees are covered by Executive Order 712 (.pdf).
Represented employees are covered by applicable collective bargaining agreement
provisions. When Executive Order 712 is in conflict with a collective bargaining
agreement, the latter shall govern.
Fee-waiver provisions may be found in the following collective bargaining agreements:
Courses taken by CO employees must be approved by the employee's supervisor and HR
Services as job-related (directly related to the requirements of the employee's
current position), or as part of an individual career development plan approved by
the supervisor and HR Services.

(b) and (c).
Dependents
Executive, MPP, Confidential, and CSEA represented (Units 6, 7 and 9) employees eligible
for the CSU fee waiver program may transfer their existing fee-waiver benefit of two
courses or six units, whichever is greater, per term, to a spouse, domestic partner
or dependent child.
The following general conditions apply for Dependent Fee Waiver:
- Dependent child is defined as child or stepchild under age 23 who has never
been married.
- The dependent must be enrolled in a degree or teaching credential program in
the CSU, and fee-waiver course(s) must be taken for credit toward completion of
that degree or teaching credential.
- Fee-waiver eligibility may be transferred to only one dependent at a time,
regardless of whether that individual uses the full entitlement of two courses or
six units.
- Eligible dependents may enroll using fee waiver at any CSU campus. The campus
administration determines if space is available in the selected courses.
- The dependent must maintain normal academic standards to continue participating
in the fee-waiver program.
Time Off to Attend Classes
Employees of the Chancellor's Office taking approved fee-waiver classes may be
granted time off by their supervisor during working hours equal to the actual class
time for one course per semester/quarter, provided the time off does not interfere
with departmental needs.
