Dependent Child Tuition Waiver

1. The waiver can be applied to the completion of the student’s first baccalaureate degree, not to exceed a total of five years or ten fall/spring semesters.

2. The waiver can be used for tuition charges during summer or intersession regardless of the student's number of enrollment hours.

3. The waiver can be used for OU tuition charges during education abroad if the program is provided by OU and the student is enrolled at OU during education abroad. If the student is enrolled less than full-time during education abroad, then the student must apply for exemption from the full-time enrollment rule through the Student Financial Center.

4. The DCTW may be used for online courses as long as the course is for credit towards a student’s first baccalaureate degree.

5. This tuition waiver does not apply to any Advanced Programs courses, noncredit continuing education courses or special academic programs, such as those in OU's Extended Campus-College of Professional and Continuing Studies, Sooner Rose, or the College of Liberal Studies, which have special regulations regarding tuition waivers.

6. The DCTW Program may not be used to obtain a second bachelor’s degree, a graduate degree, or a post-baccalaureate professional degree. The student must be enrolled as a degree-seeking student.

7. The DCTW Program waives resident tuition charges. All other charges associated with registration and enrollment are the responsibility of the student. If the student has other tuition waivers, the difference cannot be applied to other charges.

8. The DCTW Program does not cover any tuition charges incurred before the eligible dependent is admitted as a degree-seeking student including fees or tuition for Advanced Placement, pre-college programs, or high school concurrent enrollment.

9. Non-resident students who are dependents of employees and eligible for the DCTW Program will receive a waiver of non-resident tuition that equals resident tuition. The non-resident student is responsible for paying the fees and remaining tuition charges associated with their registration.
