Welcome Military & Veteran Students

Yes. Norwich offers preferred tuition rates for eligible active-duty service members, National Guard and Reserve members, veterans, military spouses, and other qualifying students. Eligibility and rates vary by program and military status, so students should review current military tuition information and speak with an admissions advisor about their specific situation.

Norwich works with students using a variety of military and veterans education benefits, including Military Tuition Assistance and VA education benefits such as the Post-9/11 GI Bill®. Eligibility and benefit amounts vary, and Norwich staff can help students understand how their benefits may apply to their program.

Yes, the Yellow Ribbon Scholarship is automatically applied if your tuition costs exceed the maximum state cap for tuition reimbursement and if you are qualified for the Post 9/11 GI Bill® at the 100% rate. Not all students are eligible for the Yellow Ribbon Program. Given the recent changes to the GI Bill®, you may not find it necessary to use the Yellow Ribbon Program depending on the tuition costs of your chosen Norwich online degree program. It does not apply for active-duty personnel, their spouses, or Veterans receiving less than 100% of the benefit.

Depending on the program, previous military education, training, professional experience, and coursework may be evaluated for applicable transfer credit. Norwich also has established pathways for certain military schools and professional military education programs. An admissions advisor can help determine what may apply toward your degree.
