Your son, daughter, stepson, stepdaughter, adopted child, or foster child for whom you have legal guardianship, and

* Doctoral degrees may not be fully covered under the tuition covered program; inquire with the University about specific program eligibility for more details regarding the tuition covered program.
​
It is important to understand that if an employee is enrolled in an eligible tuition covered program, they may still enroll 1 qualified dependent per calendar year in addition to their own participation. However, the total benefit paid by the Company cannot exceed $5,250 per year. Should two people be enrolled concurrently, the employee assumes responsibility for taxable income implications when exceeding the IRS benefit.
