According to a GoArmyEd.com release The following Policy changes to TA will be effective 24July2014.
"TUITION ASSISTANCE (TA) Changes - Effective 24 July
There are four major changes that Soldiers should be aware of:
a. Grades below a "C" for undergraduate work and grades below a "B" for graduate work will be recouped for classes with a start date of 24 July or after.
b. No fees, to include any supporting instructional fees will be paid using TA. The actual cost of tuition up to $250/semester hour is the only cost that will be funded.
c. Except in overseas locations, a school seeking access to the installation solely to provide academic counseling or student support services must have a DoD student population of at least 20 military students
d. TA must be approved before the start date of the class. To enforce this policy, Soldiers MUST request courses 10 days prior to course start date."
What are your thoughts? Is the Army's cost saving measures hurting Soldier's personal and professional growth?
