Don’t sweat the summer heat—stay cool in the A/C and make progress on your degree! ☀️❄️

Did you know the Federal Tuition Assistance (FTA) program can help make your educational goals a reality? You can receive up to $4,500 per fiscal year to cover your college tuition, helping you invest in yourself without the heavy financial burden.
While it is a commitment, it’s one that pays off long-term.

📌 Important Note for Officers & Warrant Officers:
Using FTA comes with a post-graduation service obligation:
-2 Years for Active Duty.
-4 Years for Reserve and National Guard personnel

Don't let your benefits sit on the table this fiscal year. Talk to your Education Services Officer or visit ArmyIgnitED today to get your summer courses approved! 🎓

Planning your next step in higher education? 🏫

If you’re heading to a private, out-of-state, graduate, or study-abroad program, the Post-9/11 GI Bill® might not cover all of your tuition. But don't let that stop you! The Yellow Ribbon Program is designed to help cover those remaining fees and keep your education on track.

Take a moment to see if your prospective school participates in the program. Your hard-earned benefits should work for you!
