Tanner Pierceall:

I was able to use military tuition assistance while I was in the Marine Corps. When I got out, I used the post-9/11 GI bill, which was a very easy process. Having UMGC being understanding of that...was very helpful.

Voiceover: Everyone has a unique situation so there is not one tuition plan, there are many.

Bernetta Reese:

For a long time, I didn't want to say anything about my level of education in the workplace. I got the nerve one day and I went to my employer, and I asked for their support and surprisingly they gave me their support and paid for some classes, and I was able to align that directly with my career.

Voiceover: Other ways we help you save include:

• virtual course materials for almost every stateside class, and
• credit for what you learned with transfer credits.

Voiceover: We accept credits from colleges, military training, technical courses, industry certifications, and from passing proficiency exams. We look at your entire lifetime of learning – traditional and non-traditional – not just transcripts – to award credits. It can reduce cost and your timeline to graduate.

Approximately 43 credits were transferred from my military service and life experiences, so it made it a lot less stressful for me.
