Reduced tuition at the country's "Gold Standard" military-friendly University
Austin Peay State University is now the only Tennessee university to offer in-state tuition rates to all of the nation's military-affiliated students, which includes active-duty military personnel, veterans, reservists, National Guard members and their eligible family members.
This means that military-affiliated individuals assigned to installations such as Fort Hood, Texas; Fort Bragg, North Carolina; or Fort Knox, Kentucky, can now pay the same tuition rate as Tennesseans wanting to enroll at Austin Peay. We've also reduced the cost of its military student, graduate-level tuition to the Federal Tuition Assistance rate of $250 a credit hour, which will save uniformed military graduate students over $600 in out-of-pocket expenses per course, and we're waiving its undergraduate and graduate admissions application fee for military-affiliated students.
At Austin Peay, we're proud to serve you during your academic careers. The APSU Newton Military Family Resource Center and VetSuccess are designed with military families in mind. We also offer affordable childcare and family/non-traditional housing options at our main campus location. Military spouses are also given an out-of-state fee waiver with proof of orders to Fort Campbell.
Austin Peay accepts the Military Spouse Career Advancement Accounts (MyCAA) program. This spouse scholarship program offers up to $4,000 to certain military spouses who are pursuing degrees, certificates, training, licenses or credentials leading to employment in portable career fields. MyCAA scholarships are available for use at any APSU campus.
With a satellite campus on post at Fort Campbell and a 160-acre main campus located just 10 miles away, we understand the needs of active duty military personnel, veterans and family members.
We offer numerous online programs and courses. Whether you’re reassigned to a post
across the country or deployed to serve across the globe, you can continue pursuing
your APSU degree.

We offer out-of-state fee waivers for active duty soldiers, veterans and their families. That means no matter where you live, you will receive low, in-state tuition rates.
