Registration and Reimbursement Procedures for Clark Faculty, Graduate Students and Staff
Faculty:
- Tenure track and full time faculty are eligible for tuition reimbursement for Certificate courses from the CETL budget.
- Part time faculty are similarly eligible for tuition reimbursement, upon the recommendation of their department chair.
- Faculty apply for tuition reimbursement using the same process as for grad students (i.e. by completing the application).
- After you have received email approval for your reimbursement request, it is then safe to register and pay for the course, knowing that you will be reimbursed.
- You are welcome to sign up for any course, even without prior approval for tuition reimbursement, if you are prepared to pay for it out of your own pocket.
Graduate students:
- Applications for priority consideration for tuition reimbursement are due 45 days in advance of the beginning of the semester in which the course is offered.
