NC-Military Friendly State Offers Educational Incentives

 North Carolina is a military friendly state as declared by our General Assembly.

  •  North Carolina state schools, universities and community colleges offer in state tuition to active military, their spouses and children. 

  •   The NC National Guard provides excellent opportunities to its members by paying all tuition and fees and a text book reimbursement.  To learn  more about this program visit the NCNG website.

  • North Carolina also has a program called TTT (Troops to Teachers) which offers excellent incentives to assist eligible military personnel in training to teach in targeted schools in North Carolina. 

  • The state also encourages military personnel nearing retirement to consider North Carolina as a permanent residence and for those who choose to do so, North Carolina offers educational benefits. 


There is much information on these different programs and incentives as well as a list of all state schools, universities and community colleges, their location and their programs in the provided links.

I am proud that my state, North Carolina, supports the education of our military and their families.  We have excellent schools,universities and community colleges that offer a variety of programs and degrees. 

The most difficult decision might just be which school to choose.

That's a nice post I was trying to think up some silly remark but though I would just say good luck to Michele son there is nothing as good a military collage.

Cynthia, what amazing programs they have for furthering education in your state. When I think of what it is costing for my youngest son to attend university, I have great admiration for your state in that it is helping military families this way. I hope there are many who take them up on it....education is one of the very best things we can do for ourselves and henceforth, for our communities and families.

thanks for writing such an excellent post,

Jo
