When will my Military Waiver be processed?
All Third-Party Billing, Military/Staff Waivers, and Tuition Assistance are processed after the free-drop period for each session to ensure schedule accuracy. You may receive a bill for your total cost of tuition and fees from the Office of the Bursar before we are able to process your forms, this is common and not a cause for alarm—we will apply all billing, waivers, and TA as soon as possible each semester.
