The OU College of Professional and Continuing Studies participates in the Department of Defense Tuition Assistance (TA) programs. We serve as a liaison to the DoD in processing TA and other military educational benefits. TA can cover a significant portion of the college's bachelor’s and master’s tuition for eligible active duty, reserve, and National Guard personnel. TA can go a long way toward making your education more affordable.

After the Common Application has been completed and activated in the GoArmyEd Portal, and the student has been admitted to the degree program, they may begin to enroll. Students must enroll through the OU online enrollment system (ONE) before enrolling in courses through GoArmyEd.

All military students using the Tuition Assistance program must apply for tuition assistance through their specific branch of the service before the first day of the class. If you have not applied for MTA prior to the first day of class, you may be denied Tuition Assistance by your branch of service. If you do not have your Tuition Assistance form submitted to the College of Professional and Continuing Studies by the last day of add/drop for each term, you may be held liable for all tuition and fees.
