Navy tuition assistance p1 - GI Bill Benefits - Tuition Assistance for the Military - Military Times EDGE

The Navy will pay 100 percent of a sailor’s college tuition and fees for up to 16 semester hours per year — a four-semester-hour hike from previous limits which officially are capped at 12 by regulation. Officials have removed that cap until further notice. The Navy will fork out up to $4,000 for such credit, a $1,000 hike from previous caps.

Sailors also can apply for a waiver to take more than 16 semester hours per year, netting them up to the Defense Department maximum benefit of $4,500. Officials contend they will be liberal in approving such requests.
