Navy Tuition Assistance Provisions

Navy Tuition Assistance Provisions

Tuition Assistance for Service members was established by Public Law and is implemented by a DoD Directive and DoD Instruction. A uniform tuition assistance fiscal policy by the Department of Defense (DoD) is in place across all uniformed services.

A semester hour cap of $250 is in place along with a fiscal year maximum tuition assistance coverage cap of $4500.00 for each Sailor. The Navy Tuition Assistance pays up-front the tuition and fees charged by educational institutions for course enrollments. Navy TA pays 100% of tuition costs for courses applicable to the completion of a high school diploma or equivalency certificate. For other education levels, there is a fiscal year credit limit of 16 Semester Hours, 24 Quarter Hours, or 240 Clock Hours per individual. (Waiver requests cannot exceed the FY $4500 DoD program limit.)

Payment for tuition and fees will not exceed the following caps:

$250.00 per semester hour
$166.67 per quarter hour
$16.67 per clock hour

If you think that you may exceed your allowed cap for expenses there are other options available to you to help cover the additional expenses such as federal grants and scholarships.
