HR/Payroll Date Received Stamp: Information About Fee Remission For Academic Student Employee (ASE) appointments (GSI, AI-GS, Reader or Tutor appointments) to receive a fee remission, the student needs to have an appointment, or multiple appointments, totaling 25% time or more (170 potential hours*) during the semester (not counting holidays or weekends). Appointments that on their own would not generate fee remission can be combined to create a fee remission if the combination of appointments totals 25% time or more during a semester. This can be any combination of ASE appointments (GSI, AI-GS, Reader or Tutor), or any ASE appointment in combination with a GSR appointment.

*170 Hour Rule per UC UAW Contract This is in accordance with Article 11 of the UC-UAW contract and the February 2002 Labor Relations memo on late Academic Student Employee (ASE) appointments (GSIs, AI-GSs, Readers, and Tutors), any ASE appointment, combination of ASE appointments, or combination of ASE appointment(s) and GSR appointment(s) that equal 170 hours can generate a partial fee remission, irrespective of appointment dates and percentages, and including combinations of eligible title codes.
