Who qualifies for the Employee and Dependent Scholarship Program?
Regular full-time (1.00 FTE) employees are eligible for the program; a regular full-time employee’s spouse as recognized by the laws of the State of Nebraska; and any dependent that is a naturally born child, legally adopted child, stepchild, or ward of an employee who a) is unmarried and under 24 years of age, and b) is chiefly dependent on the employee for support (claimed as a dependent for tax purposes). Also, a dependent must be registered as a full-time student. (Documentation may be required to verify dependent status.) A spouse does not need to be a full-time student to qualify for this benefit.
