Programs of Strategic Emphasis Waiver-Course Eligibility

 COURSE ELIGIBILITY

  • Only upper division courses, 3000-4000 level, required to complete the academic program are eligible. This includes required electives and required courses offered by other departments.

  • Courses may be taken in the fall, spring, or summer terms. The waiver will cover up to 110% of the number of required credit hours for the program.

  • The 110% will be based on the number of credit hours required at the time that a student is admitted to the major, regardless of whether the number of hours required increases or decreases at a later point in time.

  • If a student鈥檚 registration puts their total program hours over 110% of the required hours, all eligible courses may not be covered by the waiver. Ex. You registered for 8 upper level credits hours. 110% of your program hours is 144. Your registration brings your total program hours to 148 hours. Only 4 credit hours will be eligible for the waiver.

  • The waiver will be applied to all eligible courses\hours for a semester. Students will not be allowed to "bank" waiver hours for use in future terms.

  • The waiver cannot be applied retroactively to prior terms.

  • Courses classified as self-funded or market rate are not eligible.

  • The waiver will not be applied if a student鈥檚 tuition and fees are being covered/waived by any other statutory waiver (i.e. DCF, Homeless).

Policies for the Programs of Strategic Emphasis Waiver are maintained by the Board of Governors of the State University System.
