Tuition Fee Waiver and Reduction Program

The Employee Waiver Program allows eligible employees to attend California State University (CSU) courses at reduced rates. The program is designed to assist employees in improving current job skills or prepare for a new career. Courses are taken for credit, and the program does not apply to Open University, Professional Development Center, or Special Session courses through Extended Learning.

Fee waiver applies to CSU state-supported courses only.  Courses in self-support (i.e., Extended Learning/Education) programs may not be taken through the CSU Fee Waiver program.  In addition, fees for joint doctoral programs that are paid directly to the "partner" university cannot be waived under the CSU Fee Waiver Program.

In addition to employee fee waiver, eligible CSU employees may transfer his or her fee waiver benefit to a spouse, domestic partner or dependent child.

The Office of Human Resources will determine eligibility for the Tuition Fee Waiver and Reduction Program. Questions regarding eligibility can be sent via email to feewaiver@csusm.edu.
