Position Changes within Student Life

When there is a change in a staff member’s position number, be sure to make the following updates:

Continuing Education

If you are taking classes with the University, the Educational Benefit Form should be completed each summer to ensure that the UA tuition benefit is applied to your student account for the upcoming academic year.

Please note that you only have to select the fall term on the form. Selecting fall now automatically includes the spring and summer terms.
