Our Military Men And Women Excel In Their Education Programs With Online College
Every serviceman knows there will come a day when it’s time to leave the Armed Forces and return to civilian life. Another thing the Armed Forces know is even a basic non-comm needs to know more than just how to fire a gun and build a fox hole. As such, every U.S. military base throughout the world has set up what are simply called “education centers” for their soldiers with the purpose of providing grant for online school materials for the soldiers to utilize. These facilities allow its personnel to advance their education while still on active duty.
While in the service, both officers who want career advancement and non-commissioned personnel who want to enter specialist fields will find education is key to their next step. After leaving the Armed Forces, these same individuals will have a better chance at a successful civilian career if they've engaged in higher education prior to entering the work force.
Most important is that with these centers a soldier can continue his education wherever he or she’s stationed. This includes anywhere from the hot zones of the Middle East to a float in the Arctic Circle. Both the four services and their servicemen get an added advantage in that if the soldier gets orders to pack up and go to a new assignment, they can continue their education once they are allowed to plug back in.
The person who can help the service individual navigate the financial waters of their education is the financial officer. Education centers for men and women in the Armed Forces have personnel dedicated to assisting them in finding a way to advance their education through grant for online school options.
A primary source of funding is called TA/DANTES (Tuition Assistance/Defense Activity for Non-Traditional Educational Services). Many times, this funding can cover as much as 100% of tuition, as well as put in a healthy stipend for text books and software. Created by the government in 1974, DANTES is dedicated to helping members of every branch achieve their professional and personal educational objectives.
Another major source of funding are the online universities themselves. A number of online universities will reduce their tuitions as much as 50% to active military, as well as offer discounts to their spouses. To find this out, it is a good idea to see if the school offers the appropriate educational program, then ask them about these tuition discounts. A large majority of the top schools do offer them.
Finally, there are private grants available to active soldiers. These military grants are usually dependent on what field the soldier intends to study in, his/her military background (combat duty, family background, previous educational experience) and/or plans when leaving the armed services (such as going into domestic civil service). The base financial officer is usually one’s best guide in finding these grants out.
In addition to all the other advantages military service confers, education is at the forefront. There is assistance in both financial matters and class access unique to those who serve. Even if there are no immediate plans to return to school, a talk with a financial officer about college grants information can prove to have long-term benefits for life both in and out of the service.
