Tuition Remission for Employee Spouses/Same-Sex Partners

Spouses or qualified same-sex domestic partners (with whom you have filed with the university a domestic-partner affidavit) of full-time employees may enroll in Brandeis University undergraduate courses on a space-available basis and receive a 75 percent tuition remission. Courses may be taken through either the College of Arts and Sciences or the Rabb Summer School Program.

Employee spouses or qualified same-sex domestic partners may take one course per semester, for a total of three courses per calendar year. A fourth course is possible if both summer semester courses are taken during both Summer School sessions.  Tuition remission does not extend to any registration fees or late and special-course fees. 

Please note: Employees who have qualified same-sex domestic partners that receive tuition-remission benefits will be taxed on the amount of the benefit.

Eligibility

The student must be the legal spouse or same-sex domestic partner of a full-time employee that has been employed at Brandeis University for at least three consecutive months. Spouses or qualified same-sex domestic partners of part-time employees are not eligible for this benefit.
