Thank you. There is a reference to the applicable PPM in your
policy:<br>
<br>
"IV. In accordance with ULS PPM FB.IV.V.O-1a, the University
complies with the ULS Employee Tuition and Fee Policy." That pointed
me to this document:<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://www.ulsystem.edu/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/3-FB-IV-V-O-1a-Employee-Tuition-and-Fee-Policy-Revised-as-of-2-20-15.pdf">https://www.ulsystem.edu/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/3-FB-IV-V-O-1a-Employee-Tuition-and-Fee-Policy-Revised-as-of-2-20-15.pdf</a><br>
<br>
ULS certainly does not make it easy to find their policies and
procedures.<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>
Ramu<br>

You have to get a memo approved each quarter or

dependents. The process is different if the
