If you’re eligible for tuition assistance, please review the terms of your specific benefit to determine applicability as it relates to extension courses. In most instances, tuition benefits only cover courses that are formula funded. Because extension courses are not formula funded courses, they would not be covered by a benefit that has this as a listed requirement. Examples of tuition benefits include (but are not limited to) exemptions and waivers offered by the state of Texas, and state and federal VA benefits.
