Military Tuition Assistance

For the majority of active duty military members, Tuition Assistance will cover 100% of tuition costs at AMU. Each branch of service has established an annual cap for TA, as well.  Most AMU students can expect TA to cover the cost of 4-6 courses annually. Check with your installation Education Center for details and to apply for tuition assistance.

Reserve Component
Reserve component members are also eligible for TA under this policy; however, each service component has established specific guidelines, limits, and policies for their members that may be different than the typical active duty policy.  Before registering for any courses, reserve members should check with their local Education Services Officer (ESO) for specific information and full understanding of the limits of their TA coverage.   Reserve members are also encouraged to seek any employer tuition assistance programs that may lower their total out-of-pocket costs.


|ATTENTION ACTIVE DUTY ARMY SOLDIERS USING MILITARY TUITION ASSISTANCE!

The Army Tuition Assistance (TA) process has changed.  TA forms for classes will no longer get approved by local Education Service Officers. Instead, Army students will use the online TA approval process at the Army's Web portal at www.goarmyed.com.

Army students wishing to begin a degree program at AMU should follow these simple steps to get started:

  1. Log onto www.amu.apus.edu, click on the red Apply Now button and complete the online application and orientation.
  2. Register for your first course(s) and submit your Transfer Credit Evaluation form. (If applicable)
  3. Log onto GoArmyEd portal to get TA approved.

The Army will provide supplemental information and instructions to all soldiers about using GoArmyEd.

AMU supports the Army’s initiative to centralize tuition assistance management.  We are proud to be a partner with the Army Continuing Education System (ACES) in supporting your educational goals.
