Education and Active Duty Military
The United States military supports students who wish to begin or continue higher education while on active duty with tuition assistance and other educational programs for those in the Army, Marines, Navy, Air Force, Coast Guard, National Guard, and most Reserves. The GI Bill and VA Benefits also are available to help with educational costs no matter the type of degree a student is working toward.
Active Duty Military Students can:
- Enroll in evening courses on base, provided by local colleges or community colleges.
- Take evening or weekend courses at an institution in a nearby community.
- Take advantage of distance learning opportunities and online learning.
The pandemic has expanded the world of online learning, with many programs now being offered entirely online. This makes remote learning convenient, accessible and flexible even to those with unpredictable schedules, while in-person learning options may vary depending upon where an individual is stationed, their work schedule, and their role in the military.
Institutions that use YuJa help create distance or remote educational opportunities to support active duty students in meeting their educational goals.
