GGU Military Family Tuition Assistance Grant Program
Reduces Tuition Costs for Qualifying Military Family Members
How the Grant Works
MTAGs are awarded at the time of admission only. The MTAG is applied directly to tuition costs on a per-unit basis and appears as a credit on the student’s tuition statement, reducing the amount owed. The grant amount is calculated based on the number of units for which the student is registered. It is renewable for students who maintain continuous enrollment (at least part-time) for five (5) additional trimesters.
Tuition grants are available in the following amounts:
Undergraduate Programs: $3,000 per trimester for full-time enrollment/$1,500 per trimester for part-time enrollment
Graduate Programs: Up to $3,600 per trimester for full-time enrollment/$1,500 per trimester for part-time enrollment
School of Taxation: Up to $4,500 per trimester for full-time enrollment/$2,250 per trimester for part-time enrollment
