While you’re on active duty, 100% of your tuition is covered at accredited institutions, up to $250 per college credit and/or $4500 per year. The Tuition Assistance Program is available at any duty station and participating can even help you earn bonus points toward promotion. To continue receiving these benefits, Marines must maintain a "C" average while enrolled.
Tuition Assistance (TA) is a program offered by the Department of Defense to encourage servicemembers to attend courses delivered by accredited civilian educational institutions on campus, at military installations, or through distance learning during off-duty times. TA should be used for classes that help you move toward an academic degree that will support your long-term career goals.
Active duty Marines are authorized up to $4,500 every fiscal year (OCT 1 - SEP 30) to help pay for the cost of tuition. TA is capped at $250 per semester hour or $166.67 per quarter hour. TA does not cover fees or books.
First-time tuition assistance applicants must complete the following eligibility requirements to gain access to this funding.
