Tuition Assistance Program

The Armed Forces Tuition Assistance (TA) Program is a benefit paid to eligible members of the Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force, and Coast Guard. Congress has given each service the ability to pay up to 100% for the Tuition Expenses of its members.
  • Each Service has its own criteria for eligibility, obligated service, application process' and restrictions. This money is usually paid directly to the institution by the individual services.
  • Additionally active duty members may elect to use the MGIB "top-up" in addition to their service provided TA to cover high cost courses.
  • TA is not a loan; it should be seen as money you have earned just like your base pay!
