College scholarships for military students
Our college offers the following scholarships for US military students:
Active Duty Military Scholarship
If you are on active duty or a dependent of an active-duty service member, you may be eligible to receive the difference between the current standard tuition and $250. You may also be able to apply other military benefits, lowering the cost of school even further.
To be eligible, you must be enrolled in a program at Globe University, be an active duty service member of the Air Force, Army, Coast Guard, Navy, Marines or National Guard and be able to provide proof of your active-duty status. Family members of active-duty military personnel are also eligible. To find out about other requirements, contact a financial aid representative.
Purple Heart Scholarship
Our college awards an amount that covers all tuition and fees remaining after federal and state financial aid and veteran’s benefits are applied to a student’s account.
