Tuition Surcharge Waiver Form
Directions: This form should be completed by the student seeking a tuition surcharge waiver due to the accumulation of 165 or more degree credits. The student is also responsible for obtaining all required signatures as indicated below.
| Policy: Starting
in the fall of 2004, all resident undergraduate students who have
accumulated 165 credits (or 30 credits more than required by their degree
programs, whichever is greater) will be charged a surcharge, equal to 100
percent of the regular resident tuition, on credits beyond that
level. This policy applies to all resident undergraduate students pursuing their first baccalaureate degree, including students simultaneously pursuing a double degree or double major. All US System earned credits and WTCS transfer credits accepted toward a degree are included in this policy. Exemptions: Credits transferred from institutions other than UWS and WTCS, as well as other types of credit or coursework for which credit may be awarded (such as advanced placement, retroactive credits, credits by examination, remedial credits, etc.) are not included in the credit limit. Undergraduate special students, students pursuing post baccalaureate certification or licensure and Minnesota reciprocity students are not subject to the credit limit. |
