Tuition Assistance Application Process

  1. Complete and submit your application:
    • Fill out your tuition assistance application and route it via Workflow to your supervisor before the application deadline.
    • If your supervisor is unavailable, select an alternate supervisor from the list, search for their name, and submit.
  2. Supervisor approval:
    • Your supervisor (or alternate) must approve your application by the supervisor’s deadline for it to be considered for an award.
    • Once approved, your supervisor will route the application through Workflow, completing the process.

How Applications are Awarded

  1. UI coursework applications:
    • Applications for UI coursework are awarded on a first-come, first-served basis as funding allows, based on the order they are received after obtaining supervisor approval.
    • You will receive an email notification with the awarded amount.
  2. External (non-UI) coursework applications:
    • If funds are available after awarding UI coursework applications, completed applications for external (non-UI) coursework will be considered after the supervisor's approval deadline. 
    • These are awarded on a first-come, first-served basis, following the Priority System established by the Board of Regents, State of Iowa.
    • You will receive an email notification with the awarded amount.
  3. Notification:
    • You will be notified via email whether or not you have been awarded tuition assistance.

Important Reminders:

  1. Submission responsibility:
    • Submit your application to your supervisor by the application deadline.
    • Monitor your application to confirm it is complete, with your supervisor’s approval and forwarding through Workflow by their deadline.
  2. Registration:
    • You may complete your application before registering for a course, but you must register for the course listed on the application.
  3. Amended applications:
    • If there is a change in your course, you are responsible for reporting that change.
  4. Application completion:
    • Only applications completed by the application deadline and approved by the supervisor’s deadline will be considered. 
    • Completing the application does not guarantee assistance. Awards depend on available funding and the Priority System established by the Board of Regents, State of Iowa.
