Agencies/universities may reimburse all academic costs as specified in 25 NCAC 01K .0316, or reimburse only tuition and other academic related fees, but shall not reimburse for fees that are unrelated to registering for a course or a degree program, such as dorm, student union construction, athletic fees, etc. Agencies may also, with a bona fide business justification, reduce the amount of reimbursement per employee to a set amount less than the tuition and fees and limit the number of courses for which any one employee may be reimbursed in an academic term. Agencies/universities choosing to reimburse an amount less than the academic costs specified in 25 NCAC 01K .0316 shall make this information available to all employees at the beginning of the fiscal year and apply this limitation to all employees requesting academic assistance in that fiscal year.
