TS Construction Tips & Tricks
In order to optimize the use of space, building preferences and room features are taken into consideration instead of specific classroom requests. An example would be to request JOY (building) and Tacoma Auditorium (feature) and the available spaces are JOY 117 and JOY 215. Time Schedule coordinators have been trained in providing scheduling information in this manner.
Keep in mind that indicating room preferences is not a guarantee that you will get the space/feature you requested. Please understand that every effort will be made by the Office of the Registrar to find a room to meet your teaching requirement.
| TS Construction Room Attribute/Feature | Definition |
|---|---|
| Tacoma Auditorium | General assignment classrooms that have tiered seating with fixed tables. Chairs may or may not be fixed, depending on the space. |
| Tacoma Computer Classroom | General assignment spaces that are equipped with individual student PC computer stations. |
| Tacoma Flexible Classroom | General assignment classrooms with tables that are on casters that can easily be moved around. |
| Tacoma Non-Flexible Classroom | General assignment classrooms with tables not on casters. These rooms should remain in front-facing/lecture layout. |
| Tacoma Seminar Room | General assignment spaces that are furnished with a large conference room table, or the tables are configured in a conference room layout. |

Add/Change Course Fees
Course fees are charged for some course sections in addition to tuition. Course fee requirements are outlined in UW Executive Order No. 44. In compliance with the policy, academic departments, with the approval of the respective Dean or Director, may add course fees to specific sections. Furthermore, it is important to highlight that student input is required for proposed new course fees. Consultation with existing RSOs in the respective schools is one suggestion.
Course fees are subject to the same billing and collection process as tuition. Any financial aid a student is receiving will apply to course fees. The course fee will be applied to the academic department’s budget number indicated on the course fee form.
It is the responsibility of the department to notify the Office of the Registrar of any additions or changes in fees to existing courses in the Time Schedule.
Instructions
The signed form must be the Office of the Registrar by the suggested submission date (see table below). Course fees may not be added or changed to an existing course in the Time Schedule after Registration Period 1 has begun.
Course fees in excess of $50
New course fees in excess of $50, or course-fee increases in excess of 10% of the prior approved fee amount must be approved by the Office of Planning & Budgeting. A final review of course fees in excess of $50 is conducted after the initial Tacoma campus review and approval is complete. Additional time is required for OPB review, so please submit the course fee form no later than five weeks from the start of registration.
Course fees less than or equal to $50
Course fees less than or equal to $50, or course-fee increases less than 10% of prior approved fee amount are reviewed at the campus level only.
Please submit the completed and signed course fee forms no later than three weeks before the start of registration.

How Fees Are Applied to Students
- Payment is due by the third Friday of the quarter and a late fee is charged for past due balances.
- Any financial aid the student is receiving will apply to the course fee.
- Non-payment by the end of the quarter results in the student account being turned over to an outside collection agency and reported to the student’s credit bureau or may impact the student’s credit rating.
Refunds
- If the course is dropped by the 14th calendar day of the quarter, the course fee is automatically canceled from the student’s account.
- If the course is dropped after the 14th calendar day, the course fee is presumed to be owed and remains on the student’s account.
- Removal of course fees is processed by the Office of the Registrar per the request of the academic department
- Course fees cannot be canceled after the end of the academic quarter.
- It is recommended that departments establish and publish a refund policy for adjustments to a course fee after the second week of the quarter.
