Step 1: Contact the representative in your department responsible for processing Tuition Remission forms. For courses taken at UMCP, the request form, now referred to as the TR-Elf form, is available at the ARES website . For courses taken at other USM institutions, please complete the existing remission paper form.

Tuition Remission: Every semester an approved Tuition Remission form must be turned in to the College Park Personnel Services Department - Staff Benefits Office in order to receive credit on the student bill for courses taken by faculty and staff members. The authorizing department will then forward this form directly to the Personnel Services Department. Each faculty and staff member should check with his/her department to ascertain that the proper forms have been submitted before the scheduled deadlines. Tuition remission benefits are administered in accordance with University Policy.
