Waivers

Catholic School Employees

Employees of Catholic schools specified by the university are eligible for a 50% tuition waiver on the regular rate for undergraduate education programs under the following conditions (waiver does not apply to reduced-tuition programs):

• The individual must have a full-time position in teaching, senior administration, and/or school counseling.
• The individual must be employed by a diocesan school in the Diocese of Arlington, Virginia, or Archdiocese of Washington, DC. To learn about other Catholic schools that are eligible under this program, contact the School of Sciences, Mathematics, and Education.
• After the first degree is obtained, requests for additional courses and/or programs covered under this waiver will be considered on an individual basis.
• Verification from the employee’s school, written by the principal on school letterhead, attesting to the individual’s eligibility for a waiver must be provided at the beginning of the program and each year thereafter at the beginning of the fall semester. This verification must be sent to Marymount’s Student Accounts Office.

Family

When the first member of a family pays full-time undergraduate tuition, any additional immediate family members concurrently enrolled in a full-time undergraduate program may receive a 25% tuition waiver. Immediate family is defined as siblings, parents, dependent children, or a spouse. The full-time enrollment of concurrent family members is required for the entire semester.

Senior Citizens

As a service to senior citizens, the university offers people 65 years or older a 50% tuition waiver for undergraduate and graduate courses. Applicants must first meet all regular admission criteria for either degree candidacy or nondegree status.
