Employer Tuition Reimbursement Plan

Students whose employer offers a tuition reimbursement program may qualify for the Employer Tuition Reimbursement Plan. This payment option is available to UC and Distance Learning students who are taking credit classes that meet during the University's published official term. This payment option allows the student a tuition payment deferral until the last billing date of the semester. Payment is due approximately 25 calendar days from the end of the University's official semester end date. This may not be the date that your specific classes end. Specific payment terms and participation rules are noted on the Employer Tuition Reimbursement Plan Application (Summer 2013 or Fall 2013) of the Registration Packet, which must be completed every semester by the student and employer.

To be eligible, an Employer Tuition Reimbursement Plan Application (Section F) must be completed by the student and the student's employer, then submitted with each semester's mail, fax or walk-in registration. Web registrants must ensure that the Employer Tuition Reimbursement Plan Application is received by UC within seven (7) business days of registering. Mail the application to UC Bursar & Registration Office, 700 University Ave., Room 103, Syracuse, NY 13244-2530, or fax to 315-443-3255.

Neither non-reimbursement by an employer or non-receipt of a grade are exceptions to the payment due date. Extensions will not be granted.  Continued eligibility in this payment plan is contingent upon a satisfactory payment history. Syracuse University reserves the right to deny continued participation to anyone who has not complied with the terms specified in Section F, the Employer Tuition Reimbursement Plan Application.

For assistance with forms, please make an appointment with your financial aid advisor, 315-443-3261. A signed Promissory Note (Section E) (Summer 2013 or Fall 2013) of the Registration Packet, and, in some cases, a payment, must accompany the registration forms.

Remitted Tuition
SU Remitted Tuition Benefits (RTB) are available for the academic year, beginning with the fall semester. Employees and spouses/same-sex domestic partners who do not use all hours available to them during the academic year may be eligible to use up to six (6) credits during the following summer. Credits not used during the academic year or following summer are forfeited. There are no additional benefits available or awarded exclusively for summer.

Please consult Human Resources for detailed information and eligibility requirements related to remitted tuition. It is the student’s responsibility to ensure RTB benefit eligibility with Human Resources prior to registration. Non-covered tuition expenses are the responsibility of the student. Courses will not be dropped after the financial drop deadline due to nonreceipt of this benefit or changes in coverage after the term begins. Employees who are not approved for non-tax status will not retain RTB credits associated with classes dropped after the financial drop deadline.

Benefit eligible students must submit Tuition Benefits (Section D) (Summer 2013 or Fall 2013) of the Registration Packet and make adequate payment arrangements for each semester's enrollment. Students who register by walk-in, mail or fax registration must do so at the time of registration. Web registrants must ensure that Section D and any necessary payment is received by UC within 7 business days of registering. Mail forms to the UC Bursar & Registration Office, 700 University Ave., Room 103, Syracuse, NY 13244-2530, or fax to 315-443-3255.

Employees using SU Remitted Tuition Benefits must pay all fees at the time of registration. These charges cannot be deferred nor are they covered by the benefit. If recipients enroll via the web, fees must be paid within 7 business days of registering.  Spouses and same sex domestic partners who are responsible for partial tuition, as well as fees, must submit necessary paperwork and payment within 7 business days of web registering.

The University reserves the right to refuse or restrict the use of SU remitted tuition for certain workshop courses, noncredit courses, and special programs.
