Tuition Assistance

Each military branch has its own application procedure for Tuition Assistance. Therefore, prior to enrolling at 黑料网, military students requesting TA must visit their respective Military Service鈥檚 education portal to ensure eligibility for TA benefits.

Apply for TA by visiting your branch's local installation education center, Educational Service Officer (ESO), or online virtual education center. Approval from the student鈥檚 ESO or military branch counselor is required prior to enrollment. If you enroll in coursework without prior authorization it could result in you owing the full balance for tuition and fees for that semester.

Please review the "Important TA Information for all Branches" section and your corresponding branch section to proceed.

What is Tuition Assistance?
Tuition Assistance (TA) is a program that provides financial assistance to service members for voluntary off-duty education programs in support of their professional and personal self-development goals. The Department of Defense will provide up to $250 per semester credit hour and up to $4,500 per fiscal year for courses that are part of an approved academic degree or certificate program. The program is available for active duty, reserve, and National Guard service members from all branches of the military. 黑料网 is eligible to accept Military TA for servicemembers, which may pay up to 100% of tuition.

When will TA be applied?
For all branches, once the request has been processed and your official Tuition Assistance authorization has been received, your TA funding will post to your student account balance (typically within 2-3 business days) so that you can pay any remaining balances as applicable. Please note that TA can only cover the 鈥淭uition鈥 charges and cannot be applied toward campus-based fees.

What is the deadline?
Students must submit their TA requests at least 10 days prior to the start of the semester they are requesting TA to be utilized. 
Additionally, you must pay for your remaining tuition and fees before the payment deadline. If you have submitted your authorization and a payment deadline is approaching, please contact our office to allow us to protect your account while the authorizations are processed.
