Additional Military Finance Information

  • Navy tuition assistance (TA) is offered to active-duty sailors and selected Reservists on active duty for 120 continuous days who have completed a minimum of two years of service (cannot be waived). TA is offered up to $250 per credit hour with a $3,000 (12-credit) cap per military fiscal year.

    Prior to requesting tuition assistance, the Navy requires that you complete their Virtual Training 101 and then contact your education services officer about your command-specific requirements. Then, you will need to schedule a counseling session with the Navy College Education Counselor at NCVEC or your OCONUS Navy College office.

    TA must be requested at least 14 days prior to start date (Navy recommends 30 days prior). TA is requested online using the MyNavy Education Portal at https://myeducation.netc.navy.mil/webta/home.html#nbb. UAGC does ask that upon receipt of an approved TA voucher, you forward that approved voucher to our TA Specialists, who are ready to help at [email protected].
