Tuition Assistance
Verified- Education
- Government Benefits
$4,500 per year for college courses.
Air Force TA covers tuition costs for undergraduate and graduate-level accredited courses, helping you earn degrees without racking up out-of-pocket education bills. You can take classes online, at your local community college, or through a university of your choice, all while on active service. Note that TA doesn’t cover fees like books, lab charges, or application costs. There are grade requirements (typically a C or higher for undergrad, B or higher for graduate) and repayment clauses if you don’t meet them. Also note that many schools will reduce their course costs to be 100% covered by TA.
Military Benefit
Up to $250/credit hour and $4,500 per fiscal year
