Support for veterans, active-duty service members
Purdue University’s 100% online programs are accessible anywhere, anytime making it possible to complete them even while deployed. They feature the same high quality and academic rigor as the programs on Purdue University’s flagship campus in West Lafayette, Indiana, and are taught by the same world-class faculty.
Many students have questions about the military education benefits they may have earned through their service, or if they can use these benefits toward Purdue University’s online degrees.
Purdue’s Veterans Success Center (VSC) provides guidance about and access to military-related education benefits and opportunities for personal and professional development. This includes undergraduate and graduate program fee waivers for military veterans and active service members, and benefits such as the GI Bill and Military Tuition Assistance.
Federal Government Employee Benefits
Purdue University’s participation in the Federal Academic Alliance also gives federal employees, their spouses and legal dependents the opportunity to take advantage of reduced tuition rates and receive specialized support.

Student Testimonials
“The asynchronous learning enabled my participation while on active duty and also while deployed in the Middle East. The curriculum and professors were accommodating and flexible with my service commitments, making it possible to complete course requirements on my time and at my own pace.”
“A decade ago, I didn’t think I would be here and be so committed to going back to school. Purdue has shown me the value in continuing your education, and what’s possible on the other side of that.”
“The faculty was fantastic in terms of understanding that many of us distance students had jobs outside of school and were juggling other things and were not in the same time zone. They worked the schedule to accommodate all of that, so that made it a lot more comfortable for me to be successful.”
