Military Personnel and Veterans

At Kaplan University we believe in the potential of our military in the classroom and in their careers; we are committed to helping them achieve that potential. Special tuition rates for active-duty military personnel and veterans are designed so that military benefits, such as tuition assistance and the Montgomery GI Bill, will cover much, if not all, of the cost of a Kaplan University education. Discounts for active-duty military spouses are also available. Textbooks and instructional materials are provided at no additional charge.*
