Online College Experience for Military Students Earn a flexible degree from a school that understands your service.

Proud military supporter since WWII

Our military learners have always been part of our history. From clerical classes for active-duty service members in the 1940s, to vocational programs for disabled veterans, to online learning for students overseas.

Today, we remain committed to military service members and their families through every mission, transition, and PCS move. We're proud to serve:

Service members

If you're active duty — including National Guard or Selected Reserve — you're eligible for a military tuition discount. And you’ll get dedicated support from day 1.

Military spouses

You're eligible for a tuition discount, too. You may also qualify for a scholarship through one of our partnership programs — helping you save even more.

Veterans

Your experience matters. As a veteran, we’ll help maximize your VA benefits and put you on track for the next phase of your career.
