Currently enlisted and interested in furthering my education via online schooling. Can anyone suggest some of the best online colleges for military personnel?
Sure thing! There are a number of top-notch online colleges that specifically serve military personnel like yourself, and offer added benefits such as tuition discounts as well as flexibility in terms of coursework.
1. Arizona State University (ASU): The university has an online platform that offers over 200 undergraduate and graduate degree programs. They provide tuition assistance, accept the GI Bill, and are a Yellow Ribbon Program participant.
2. Penn State World Campus: Penn State's online division also welcomes military students and offers various degree programs. They too accept the GI Bill and participate in the Yellow Ribbon Program.
3. University of Maryland Global Campus (UMGC): UMGC has a historical connection to the military—it was founded to serve military personnel stationed overseas, and today it offers over 90 online programs. In addition to accepting GI Bill benefits, UMGC offers a military tuition rate which is lower than civilian rates.
