Navy Tuition Assistance Overview

Navy Tuition Assistance Overview

The Tuition Assistance (TA) program provides financial assistance for voluntary off-duty education programs in support of a Sailor's professional and personal self-development goals. Caps are in place to limit the amount of coverage that Navy tuition assistance provides per credit hour, but most will find that the 100% coverage that the Navy provides will be more than enough to further their education.

All qualified Sailors are authorized to participate in the Navy tuition assistance program. Both Naval Officer and Enlisted active duty personnel and Naval Reservists on continuous active duty are authorized Navy tuition Assistance along with enlisted Naval Reservists ordered to active duty 120 days and to Naval Reservist Officers ordered to active duty for 2 years or more.
