Question
How will QTR impact my undergraduate merit scholarship?
Answer
QTR reduces the cost of base tuition by 75% for dependent students. Since merit scholarships cannot exceed the cost of 100% base tuition, merit scholarships will reduced down to 25% of base tuition or $25 for employee/employee spouse. Merit does not cover the cost of program differential tuition fees but these costs may be reduced by QTR. Please note that reducing merit awards due to QTR does not extend the original time frame of merit eligibility and any excess funds cannot be converted to cash to be used to pay for other costs.
QTR Example | Using a $5,000 Wildcat Tuition* Award Offer |
---|---|
Base Tuition | $10,000 |
QTR (75% reduction) | $ 7,500 |
Tuition Due | $ 2,500 |
Wildcat Tuition Award** | $ 2,500 |
Tuition Due (after award applied) |
$ 0 |
*Wildcat Tuition Award reduced from $5,000 to $2,500 to cover the tuition balance due, covering the 100% cost of base tuition.
