The updated Tuition Benefit Workflow has been in production since March 30, 2018. A new feature captures all of an employee’s recorded dependents in a drop-down list. Some dependents listed will not show a “Student Banner ID,” and while this is not an editable field, having it blank will not stop the workflow process. If you do not see one of your dependents in the list, please contact the Benefits Office.
The new Tuition Benefit Waiver is now in effect. One of the new features is that the workflow now captures all information on dependents directly from Banner. Consequently, there is no need to enter that information. If the Banner identification is not available, the field will remain blank and cannot be edited.
