Six-month waiting period removed for new hires for tuition waivers?

May 1, 2018

University Relations

According to the last paragraph on a Statewide report entitled, "HR Updates to Communicate as of 2/21/2018",

"The president has approved a regulation change to eliminate the 6 month waiting period for new
employees to use the tuition waiver. Also, the minimum grade requirements has been
eliminated. A new form is being developed with these new requirements to go into effect for
Summer 2018 term."

Is this true? Did a new form get developed in time for the start of the Summer 2018 term?  Should I hold off paying for my Summer classes? Should I tell my friends about it?
