FIND PERSONAL SUCCESS THROUGH FLEXIBILITY
While many Soldiers choose to attend traditional four-year colleges, the Army also pays for a variety of programs, training courses, and schools, like:
Online School
Online courses and degree programs provide flexibility for Soldiers’ varying schedules. Thousands of single parents and even deployed members earn their college degrees each year using online education.
Most schools offer online programs that range from associate to master’s degrees and, depending on the course, may take as little as one to two hours a day, three days a week.
Full-Time School
You can choose to serve part-time in the Army while you go to college. Many Soldiers take advantage of this unique opportunity to get career training, train a weekend a month and two weeks a year, and earn money while getting their degree.
EXPLORE A LESS EXPENSIVE EDUCATION
The GI Bill
The GI Bill helps you pay for most if not all of your education, whether you’re looking to get an associate’s degree, bachelor’s degree, or a number of other alternatives to college.
Tuition Assistance
The Tuition Assistance program helps Soldiers receive money for school or professional training. Eligible Soldiers can receive up to $250 per semester hour and up to 16 semester hours per fiscal year—totaling $4,000 annually.
