Staff Tuition Benefit

The University of Oregon encourages continued learning for employees. Staff tuition provisions are included in the employee benefit program to encourage and assist eligible employees with educational pursuits.  

Faculty and staff (not including temporary employees, graduate assistants, and other student employees) employed half-time or more on the first day of classes may register for a maximum of 12 hours of credit per term at the staff rate of 30% of resident undergraduate tuition. Part-time employees with less than .5 FTE are not eligible for staff rates.

Note: Certain programs are excluded from the staff tuition benefit. Please confirm with the program you're enrolling in that the program is included in this benefit. 

The UO Budget and Resource Planning office maintains a list of UO's excluded programs (open the document called "Policies on Tuition, Mandatory Enrollment Fees, and Other Charges, Fines, and Fees" and search for "excluded UO programs").  Other Oregon universities also exclude programs from this benefit; it is the employee's responsibility to confirm whether their academic program is included.
