Army, Coast Guard, Marines, Navy, and Marines. Each military branch has its own tuition
assistance form and procedures. Students planning to use Tuition Assistance must first
obtain approval from their respective service branch. Please contact your local education

Advising
State, federal, or commercial entities may impose additional requirements related
to obtaining credentials in a given field. Additional information can be found within
the individual Program descriptions in our College Catalog. Advisors provide students
with the opportunity to clarify career and life goals through one-on-one meetings
and specialized assessments. Our goal is to ensure each student fulfills their educational
and career goals and reaches their full potential.
