Tuition Remission

As part of USF’s comprehensive benefits package, eligible employees and family members can further their education, enhance their skills, and pursue career development through tuition remission.

Tuition remission is a waiver of tuition and is available to employees and their eligible family members who qualify and are admitted for enrollment at USF. Employees, spouses, Registered Domestic Partners (RDPs) and IRS tax-dependent children are eligible for 100% tuition remission when they meet specific eligibility requirements. The benefits apply to tuition only; all non-tuition expenses and fees are the responsibility of the student.

  • A new tuition remission form must be submitted online for each semester that the benefit is requested. Please note that you must be an enrolled student to submit a form. 
  • If you are in the process of applying for a degree program during a filing period, please contact tuitionremission@usfca.edu when you have been enrolled as a student. 
  • For more information about the visiting student application process review the Visiting Students page or contact registrar@usfca.edu.

For more information about filing periods, additional documentation, supervisor approval, tax implications, etc., please review the tuition remission quick links above.

Tuition Exchange (TE) and FACHEX

TE and FACHEX programs provide the opportunity for eligible IRS tax-dependent children of full-time faculty, librarians and staff to possibly receive a scholarship for an undergraduate degree at a participating member institution.

Applying for a TE or FACHEX award does not guarantee acceptance at that institution or ensure that a scholarship will be granted. Award criteria is set by the institution at which the child is applying, and as with most award decisions, the process is competitive.

For more information, please review the resources in the quick links above and at www.tuitionexchange.org.

USF accepts applications from USF dependents from September 1 to November 13 each year. Please visit the TE page for application instructions.
