Coast Guard, Marines & Navy Tuition Assistance
Tuition Assistance (TA) is a benefit offered to service members to assist with the cost of tuition. TA typically covers 100% of tuition, up to the $250 cap per credit hour. Our undergraduate tuition rate is $250 per credit hour and our graduate programs are discounted for military personnel, to bring the tuition down to the $250 credit hour cap.
For additional information on amount covered by TA and who is eligible, according to branch of service, please go to the Military - Tuition Assistance Program website.
