Military Students Admissions Information
As an institution located in the capital of the United States, American University is particularly invested in supporting our nation’s service members and their dependents and honoring the sacrifices they have made to our country. The convenient and flexible nature of our online programs make them especially suited for active and reserve members of the military as well as for veterans seeking to transition into civilian life. American University thanks you and your family for your service to our country. If you are using VA Education Benefits, served in the Armed Forces, or are a dependent/spouse of a service-member, we would like to extend our appreciation by offering you an application fee waiver when you apply.
