Child of Employee Tuition Waiver Application Process:

The Child of Employee Tuition Waiver Application requires two forms to be completed for the first semester for which a tuition waiver is being requested:

• Employee completes the Child of Employee 50% Tuition Waiver Application (via NESSIE)
• Student completes the Tuition Waiver Benefit Utilization Record (BUR) Form (paper form)

Note:  for students attending the Urbana-Champaign campus, the parent does not need to complete a Child of Employee Tuition Waiver Application after the initial semester; however, the student must complete a Tuition Waiver Benefit Utilization Record Form (paper form) each semester. If the student has a break in attendance, both the Waiver Application and Benefit Utilization forms are required.

The Policy and Eligibility requirements can found in NESSIE under the Education - Employee and Child Tuition Waivers link. In addition, you can find the Application Process by following the steps below:

Contact the campus where the student is attending to find out if they require a form other than the University of Illinois BUR form.

The form can either be obtained by the staff member printing the form via NESSIE, or it can be printed off from the Student Financial Aid website at: http://www.osfa.uiuc.edu/resources/forms/forms0708.html.
