Common use of APPLICATION FOR TUITION REIMBURSEMENT Clause in Contracts

APPLICATION FOR TUITION REIMBURSEMENT. To apply for tuition reimbursement, an employee must complete an Application for Tuition Reimbursement Form, attach requested documentation (if receiving a grant or scholarship), and obtain signatures from your Department Head and the Mayor. The application is to be submitted to the Human Resources for final processing. If employees are receiving financial assistance through the Veterans Administration, grants or scholarships, the City of Solon will deduct the amount received and will reimburse the remaining balance based on the employee attaining grade levels stipulated under the “Amount of Reimbursement.” Documentation of such assistance must be submitted with the Application for Tuition Reimbursement. Misrepresentation of other education assistance may result in the employee being barred from future participation in the program, repayment of funds expended by the City, and disciplinary action up to and including termination. Applications must be received by Human Resources at least two weeks prior to commencing classes. An employee cannot assume approval of reimbursement until he or she has been notified by the Human Resources Department that their application has been approved.
