Military or Government Billing Plan
Whether you’re serving Active Duty, are a member of the Reserve or National Guard, or are the spouse of a military member, you are eligible for a discount on tuition. Our special military tuition rates make higher education more attainable, so you can earn your degree while you serve our country
Under the Military or Government Billing Plan, University of Phoenix directly bills the military or other government agency for a student’s tuition.
Students are responsible for payment of their tuition and electronic course materials fees not covered by the military or other government agency prior to the start of each course.
U.S. Armed Forces members, their spouses, and their dependants are determined eligible for direct bill payments by the Department of Defense (DoD). The Military or Government Billing Plan does not include Montgomery GI Bill (Chapter 30) benefits.
Recipients of the Marine Gunnery Sergeant John David Fry Scholarship (Chapter 33) are eligible for the Military or Government Billing Plan. Participants in the Vocational Rehabilitation and Employment (VR&E) VetSuccess Program (Chapter 31) are also eligible for the plan.
To select the Military or Government Billing Plan, all students must complete the Student Financial Agreement. For a government agency, a government tuition assistance voucher is required.
U.S. Armed Forces members using the Post–9/11 GI Bill (Chapter 33) benefits must submit the Certificate of Eligibility or Transfer of Eligibility. For all other direct billing to the military, students also must submit one of the following:
- Military Tuition Assistance form DD1550, DD1556 or SF182
- Tuition Assistance Authorization form
- Other authorized military tuition assistance voucher
All required documents must be received prior to the start of each course. For additional information, contact a University representative.
To maintain our high degree of academic excellence, new rates on selected tuition and electronic course materials will be implemented for incoming and current students for all courses beginning on or after July 1, 2012. The tuition changes vary by program and geography, but will generally be in the range of a 1 to 5% increase. New rates will be posted here on or before July 1, 2012. However, tuition and fees are subject to change at any time in the University’s sole discretion.
We realize tuition and fee increases are always a concern. These increases will enable the University to continue to provide a high-quality educational experience that is current, applicable and relevant.
