The North Carolina General Statutes provide for a military tuition rate to qualified members of the U.S. armed forces and their qualified dependents that is less than the non-resident tuition rate charged to out-of-state students. Applicants must meet the criteria established for qualification in order to be eligible. The Application for Admission collects information relevant to this "military" tuition rate. Applicants, who believe they (or their dependents) may qualify for this benefit, should review the information related to it on the Registrar's Webpage: "Determining Residency for the Purposes of Tuition". Scroll down to "Military Benefit" item and then click on the link in the left navigation bar of that webpage to access the application form. The "Application for the Benefit of a Reduced Tuition Rate as a Member of the Armed Services or Dependent Relative Thereof" [pdf 48k] describes the eligibility criteria. Applicants should note the deadline for submitting the form provided in the "Military Benefit" item on the Registrar's Webpage: "Determining Residency for the Purposes of Tuition".
