Tuition waivers for employees, faculty, adjuncts, spouses and dependents are due each semester by the fee payment deadline, which this semester is Friday, Jan. 27. Tuition waivers must be signed by the employee and the employee's supervisor (regardless of class time) to be valid.  They can be submitted several ways:


  • Fax: 907-474-5898

  • Email: uaf-business-office@alaska.edu

  • Campus mail: PO Box 757640, Fairbanks, AK 99775

  • In person: Business Office, first floor Signers’ Hall


Save time and avoid standing in line by paying at uaonline.alaska.edu/

A few friendly reminders:
Employee tuition waivers pay for 12 credits per academic year (up to 6 credits per semester) for university employees. Tuition waivers are accepted for the current semester and cannot be applied to prior terms.

Other criteria:

  •   Tuition waivers cover tuition only.

  •   The employee must be employed on the first day of instruction to be eligible.

  •   The student is responsible for paying all other fees by the payment deadline.

  •   Reimbursements will not be made to employees/dependents who pay for a course or courses and later become eligible.

  •   Dependents must be under the age of 24 on the first day of instruction to be eligible.

  •   Waivers found to be ineligible will be reversed and the students will be responsible for payment of waived tuition.

  •   Late fees and payment deadlines apply to those using tuition waivers.

  •   A list of UA-approved non-credit courses is available online through the HR website.


The waiver form is available online.
