3. Verification of Paperwork

TA forms must be received by the end of the enrollment period of the upcoming term. After reviewing the forms submitted, if approved, the amount the Navy is paying will be applied to the tuition due as well as the military discount. An email will be sent to you once both have been applied which will include the amount of remaining balance due.

The student will be responsible for any approved amount that is not paid by the Navy. Student services could be suspended for failure to pay tuition in a timely manner.
