Important - TTU Educational Benefits Information/Deadlines
NOTE: The published date of December 23, 2010 to begin registering for classes paid for by the PC-191 has been moved to December 16, 2010 due to the Banner implementation. The Eagle On-Line system will go down on December 23, 2010 at 11:59 p.m. and will not reopen until January 3, 2011, at 8:00 a.m. The deadline for early registration/fee payment/ confirmation for spring term is January 5, 2011 at 11:59 p.m.
Each semester hundreds of TTU employees take advantage of our educational benefits using the PC191, Staff Scholarship, Spouse/Dependent discount, or other forms of TTU Educational Benefits. Instructions for using each benefit and text of applicable policies and procedures are available on the Human Resource Services (HR) website at http://tntech.edu/adminpandp/administrative-policies-and-procedures/ (Click on Employee Benefits – 2.1 to 2.8). We want to ensure those employees taking advantage of these benefits can do so as easily as possible, and the following guidelines provide important information to ensure efficient and timely processing of educational benefits.
Fee Waiver and Discount Forms
All fee waiver and discount forms are available on the HR website at http://tntech.edu/hr/forms/. Most forms must be printed on NCR paper (allows duplication of signatures) which should be available in your departmental secretary’s office. If you do not have access to NCR paper, you may request a form by emailing

.
Required Signatures
Please ensure that all required signatures are obtained before submitting forms to HR for processing. It is no longer a requirement to obtain signatures from the Admissions Office or the Graduate School before submitting PC-191 forms to HR unless you work under those departments. You must register for courses and confirm your enrollment by the deadline.
Deadlines for Fee Waivers and Discounts
Fee waiver and discount forms are due in HR a minimum of two (2) weeks before fee payment is due. The forms can be submitted as early as the advisement period. Fee waivers submitted after the two-week deadline will be processed as quickly as possible in the order they are received, but there is no guarantee that they can be processed in time for fee payment deadlines. In this case, the employee will be responsible for payment of fees at registration and will be reimbursed by the Business Office after the term begins. We will not be able to process forms while you wait. If you need to take a form to another school, please leave a phone number or address so we can contact you or mail the form back to you when it is ready.
Fee Waiver Corrections – MUST BE DONE IN WRITING BY FIRST DAY OF CLASS
If it is necessary to make changes to your class schedule after submitting the PC-191, C&S Staff Scholarship, or Faculty/Administrative Staff Tuition Reimbursement, you must submit the corrections in writing to HR. You can do this by emailing changes to

. Your notification should reference the semester, the form used, the class originally submitted on the form, and the new class.
Other State Institution Deadlines
Please verify the fee waiver and discount form submission deadline and the fee payment deadline at the school you or your family member will be attending and submit forms accordingly. Some schools do not want forms signed by TTU HR any earlier than one month before the term begins.
