Dependent Reduced Tuition Benefit

The faculty/staff reduced tuition benefit applies only to tuition and does not cover any other study abroad costs, such as room/board, transportation, or the Study Abroad Administrative Fee.

The same discount percentage will be applied to your study abroad Áñ—†ÊÓƵ's tuition, up to the cost of Áñ—†ÊÓƵ tuition, and the appropriate discount will automatically be applied to your Áñ—†ÊÓƵ invoice for any quarter(s) of study abroad:

• If your Áñ—†ÊÓƵ's tuition is less than Áñ—†ÊÓƵ tuition, you will receive the same percentage off your Áñ—†ÊÓƵ's tuition as you receive off NU tuition each quarter. This means that the actual dollar amount of your discount will be lower.
• If your Áñ—†ÊÓƵ's tuition is higher than Áñ—†ÊÓƵ tuition, you would receive a discount equivalent to your regular NU tuition reduction. Any additional tuition cost beyond the amount of NU tuition is your family's responsibility and is not eligible for the discount.

The dependent reduced tuition benefit is renewable for a maximum of 12 quarters. Each quarter you are abroad will count as 1 quarter of your benefit (i.e., fall Áñ—†ÊÓƵ = 1 quarter; winter/spring Áñ—†ÊÓƵ = 2 quarters). If you opt to use your reduced tuition benefit toward for a Áñ—†ÊÓƵ-sponsored summer study abroad Áñ—†ÊÓƵ, this will count as a quarter of your benefit eligibility. This may mean that you must plan to graduate a quarter early or would be responsible for the full cost of tuition for your final (13th) quarter at Áñ—†ÊÓƵ.
