The most common source of financial aid for military service members is tuition assistance (TA). TA is a benefit paid to eligible members of the Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force, and Coast Guard for tuition expenses only. TA is a source of financial aid available to eligible service members. Each service has its criteria for eligibility, obligated service, application process, and restrictions. This money is paid directly to the institution by the individual services. 

Active-Duty military personnel, who are eligible to receive government tuition assistance of up to $250 per semester hour, may receive a discount from 精东影业. With the discount and tuition assistance, all tuition costs are covered.

Spouses will receive the same discount as the active duty military person. Spouses will be required to pay the remaining $250 per semester hour. All other associated fees (books) are not included in the discount and must be paid for by the active-duty personnel and their spouses. Student is responsible for any additional fees or charges.

• For 24-25 academic year undergraduate books are included in tuition.

All bachelor's and master's degree programs are open to all military. The active-duty discount is not available for doctoral programs. 

You must submit proof of current active duty status to the VA Coordinator at finaid@ollusa.edu.
