New Tuition Waiver Policy
The University of Toledo’s tuition waiver policy has been updated, effective summer semester. Employees’ tuition will still be waived 100%; however, other fees will no longer be covered. Also, the Tuition Waiver Request form must be submitted earlier – prior to the payment due date, posted on the Treasurer’s webpage in advance of each semester.
Other policy highlights:
- Employees seeking a JD law degree are ineligible for the waiver after spring semester, but those currently pursuing a JD law degree will be grandfathered in per details in the new policy.
- Courses taken by an employee’s spouse or dependents must be taken for credit and toward completing a degree, with 100% of their tuition still waived.
- The minimum of 12 credit hours per semester has been removed from the policy.
Note: Employees in collective bargaining units should refer to their specific CBU agreement for any details related to the tuition waiver benefit.
The new tuition waiver policy and much more information are available on the NEW TUITION WAIVER PAGE.
The University of Toledo is committed and proud to provide its employees a competitive, cost effective and innovative program of employee benefits.

Qualifying Life events
Keep your benefit coverage current. Report changes in family status within 30 days.
Important events in your family life can affect your health plan coverage. Take steps to update your coverage immediately when one of these events occurs:
- Marriage
- Birth of a child
- Adoption of a child
- Change in spouse’s job status that affects coverage
- Change in child’s dependent status
- Divorce
- Death
These events qualify you to add or change coverage for you and your family, but you only have 30 days from the date of the event to make these changes.
Report any family status change to the Benefits Department within 30 days of the event and make sure you complete the online enrollment application under your MyUT account (please see tutorial above). Changes after the 30-day window cannot be allowed until the next Open Enrollment period.
