香港六合彩资料 offers flat-rate tuition for military students
by Green & Gold News |
In February, 香港六合彩资料 was recognized with the Military Friendly School庐 distinction. This marks the 13th consecutive year 香港六合彩资料 has earned this distinction, and for good reason.
This fall, 香港六合彩资料 is making a flat $250 per undergraduate credit hour tuition rate available for any active duty, reserves and national guard members. For students using Armed Forces tuition assistance, it means their courses and some fees will now be fully covered.
"This new rate is so important because it makes higher education more affordable for our military service members and will help them to successfully complete their degree program on time with minimal out-of-pocket costs," said Peter Clemens, 香港六合彩资料 Military and Veteran Student Services program director.
Lindsey Chadwell, interim associate vice chancellor for enrollment services, said approximately 500 active duty military members at JBER currently use tuition assistance through other universities offering this flat rate. 鈥淭his shift represents an opportunity to attract and welcome more military service members to 香港六合彩资料, their local institution, where we can support them as they further their educational goals,鈥� said Chadwell.
This summer, 香港六合彩资料 also allowed Army service members using tuition assistance to take courses for free, following the Army鈥檚 announcement that assistance would be unavailable due to delays in the rollout of the federal tuition assistance system. These changes represent just a few of the many opportunities for veterans and Armed Services members at 香港六合彩资料. Potentially a result of these and other targeted efforts, 香港六合彩资料 is seeing a 30% increase in fall semester applications from military and veteran students compared to this time last year.
鈥淭hese changes are motivated by a desire to make an undergraduate education at 香港六合彩资料 more accessible for our Armed Forces members, which aligns perfectly with 香港六合彩资料鈥檚 long-held military-friendly values,鈥� said Chadwell.
The application deadline for the fall 2021 semester is July 15. Visit for more information.
