How do I Apply?

Follow these five steps to apply for the Sixty Plus Tuition Waiver and enroll in classes. 

1. Apply for Admission: Before you can use the Sixty Plus Tuition Waiver, you must be admitted to ÌÇÐÄÊÓƵ. If you are a new student or have been away from ÌÇÐÄÊÓƵ for a year or more, you will need to apply for admission before moving forward.
   
   Visit our Other Student Types page to learn more about admission requirements for your student type or contact the ÌÇÐÄÊÓƵ Office for guidance on which path applies to you.
2. Receive Your Admission Decision: Once you have submitted all required admission materials, the ÌÇÐÄÊÓƵ Office will review your application and notify you of their decision. The timeline depends on how quickly all required materials are received, so submit your paperwork as early as possible.
3. Apply for the Sixty Plus Tuition Waiver: Applying for admission and applying for the waiver are two separate steps. After you receive your admission decision, complete and submit the
   
   Submit your application well before the semester begins. Your waiver application must be received by noon on the payment deadline for the semester to be processed.
   
   Once approved, your waiver stays on file with the Registrar's Office and applies automatically each semester. You do not need to reapply.
4. Meet with Your ROAR Advisor and Enroll: Applying for the waiver and enrolling in classes are two separate steps. You can submit your waiver application anytime after you are admitted, but enrollment happens during your advising meeting with the ROAR First-Year Advising Center. 
   
   You'll be contacted by an advisor after submitting your waiver application. To ensure your courses are eligible for the waiver, your enrollment must occur no earlier than two business days before the start of the semester and no later than the census date (11th day of the semester).
   
   Important: The waiver applies to all courses you enroll in for the semester, not individual classes. If you enroll in any course outside of this window, the waiver cannot be applied to any of your courses that semester.
5. Pay Your Fees: The Sixty Plus Tuition Waiver only covers tuition. As an approved waiver student, you are responsible for paying the Registration and Student Health fees. Visit the Fee Pricing and Details page for current rates.
