Student Eligibility Requirements

PUBLIC ACT 90-0282

At Western Illinois University, this tuition waiver is limited to 4 years, 8 regular semesters and 4 summer terms, or 120 hours, whichever comes first. If your child plans to attend another Illinois university, you may want to seek clarification on this limitation from their Human Resources Office.
Eligibility for the 50% tuition waiver benefit is conditioned upon the parent being employed as of the first day of the academic term (in accordance with the academic calendar where the student is enrolled) for which the tuition waiver benefit would apply.
An eligible child of a qualified employee must be under the age of 25 at the commencement of the academic year during which the waiver is to be effective (in accordance with the academic calendar where the student is enrolled). Thereafter, the age limitation must continue to be fulfilled as of the beginning date of subsequent academic years.
The eligible child must qualify for admission under the same admission requirements, standards, and policies that the tuition waiver granting university generally applies to applicants for admission to its respective undergraduate colleges and programs.
The eligible child must continue to maintain satisfactory academic progress toward graduation in accordance with policies at the tuition waiver granting institution where the student is enrolled

Limitations

Subject to the eligibility requirements specified above, the waiver may be utilized until such time as a total of 4 years of undergraduate 50% tuition waiver benefits have been expended in accordance with university procedures utilized to calculate tuition waiver limitations generally. The 4-year limitation shall be comprised of the number of hours or semesters (including summer terms) necessary to complete an undergraduate degree as defined by the tuition waiver granting university, not to exceed a total equivalent period of 4 years. The 4-year limitation represents the cumulative total of partial undergraduate tuition waivers granted among all university locations where the entitlement may be exercised in accordance with P.A. 90-0282. In the event that a student who is eligible for the 50% tuition waiver transfers or simultaneously enrolls in another university (as defined above) the admitting institution shall receive, from the previous (or concurrent) institution, a certification defining the amount of 50% tuition waiver benefits that have been or are being utilized in accordance with the respective institutional standards for tuition waiver benefit calculations.
The tuition waiver benefit may not be used for non-credit or graduate/professional academic programs or certifications.
In the event a child loses eligibility through a parent's separation from employment during any given academic term or semester, the benefit shall not be rescinded for the duration of that term or semester. However, no future benefits may be extended until such time as the employee regains eligibility status.
If both parents are employees, an eligible child shall be eligible for a total maximum 50% waiver as specified above. Employment records of two parents cannot be combined with respect to the 7-year employment requirement. Eligibility criteria in terms of employment shall be benchmarked upon the employment record of only one parent, with the greatest individual amount of total university employment.
The waivers are available for attending Chicago State University, Eastern Illinois University, Governors State University, Illinois State University, Northeastern Illinois University, Northern Illinois University, Southern Illinois University, University of Illinois and Western Illinois University.
To ensure timely processing, the application should be received in Human Resources by August 28th for the fall semester, by January 28th for the spring semester, and by June 28th for the summer semester. After the due date a finance charge of 1% of the account balance is added each month.
