Submitting a Tuition Benefit Request for Yourself

Overview & Policy

All SJU courses must be requested separately each semester, so please make sure to submit a new form for each semester. One form can accommodate up to 3 courses - if you need to list more than 3 courses, you may submit a second form, but please make sure to review the guidelines below on the number of credits allowed per semester and per year prior to submitting a second form.

Any questions about where your request is in process, if you've submitted a form already, or what the outcome is can be found in the "My Requests" report - see "Related Articles" for details.

Undergraduate Courses
The tuition benefit covers 100% of undergraduate courses, up to a max of 9 credits per semester or 18 credits total per financial aid year (begins with summer semester - summer, fall, intercession, spring).


Graduate Courses:
The tuition benefit covers 100% for 6 graduate credits per semester or 18 credits per academic year, with the exception of doctoral programs and certain excluded master’s programs. The Interdisciplinary Doctor of Education for Educational Leaders and the Executive MBA programs have special admittance processes which are communicated annually.

After your manager has approved the course days/times, the request will go to the HR Benefits team to review and approve your eligibility to receive the benefit, and then will be sent to the Office of Financial Aid for final processing.
