Through UC's Reduced Fee Enrollment Program University employees can receive a 66% reduction in fees for courses
taken at any campus of the University of California. To take advantage of this program, you must be accepted to the University
of California.  The Reduced Fee Enrollment Program is available to career employees who have completed their probationary
period and have gained admission to regular session University classes while working at the University. Eligible employees receive a two-thirds reduction on both University registration and education fees. A fee reduction is available each quarter for up to three classes or nine units whichever is greater.

To obtain these benefits, you must do the following:

1.  First apply for admission to the University of California by contacting the Admissions Office.

    appropriate to your employment status and campus location:


 

 

3.  Return the completed Reduced Fee Enrollment application to the appropriate Campus Human Resources
     Office as noted on the form.

4.  After review of your application and verification of eligibility, the online BAR system will be updated and
     will apply the appropriate reduction.   Note: A Reduced Fee Enrollment application is required for each
     quarter in which you participate in the program.
