Per DoD MOU, paragraph 4.e.(2)-(3), “DoD personnel are entitled to consideration for all forms of financial aid that educational institutions make available to students at their home campus. Educational institution financial aid officers will provide information and application processes for Title IV student aid programs, scholarships, fellowships, grants, loans, etc., to DoD Tuition Assistance (TA) recipients … [and that] Service members identified as eligible DoD TA recipients … will have their TA benefits applied to their educational institution’s account prior to the application of their Pell Grant funds to their account."

Active-Duty, Reserve and Guard Process and Timeline

Military students are often eligible for tuition assistance (TA) provided by their service. To determine eligibility, please consult your military education officials, who must approve all TA requests prior to the start date of the course. Eligible students must enroll for courses directly with their Academic Institution after approval is given by the military education officials. Air Force and Army members need to apply for TA no earlier than 60 days prior and must enter information into their service TA application system no later than 7 days prior to the course start date. Please note if the incorrect class start date is chosen for the TA, it will not be paid, and the student will be responsible for the cost of the class. Navy members need to start their application for TA 30 days prior to the term start date. Marine Corp members need to start their application 60 days prior to the term start date.
