Re: tuition discounts
Illinois State University allows staff (civil service &
AP) to "waive" tuition AND fees for up to 7 credit hours a
semester (4 during the summer term) - undergrad/grad/doctorate. We
do have to follow student procedures about being accepted into the
department, maintaing our GPA and following the catalogue procedures like
any other student; however there are some perks that we don't get (the
library still considers us staff so the length of time for book check out
is shorter) and we need supervisor permission if the class is during the
work day, 8-4:30.
But - a master's degree for free; you can't beat that with a stick
(although the clerical pay that I get barely pays for my undergrad
student loan!). It'll just take me longer than most to get
it.
