Not only is Hocking College your fastest option, but also one of the most economical. Dr. Ron Erickson, President of Hocking College, issued the following statement on Monday, November 2, 2009, "In recognition of their service, all out-of-state active, active-reserve, and veteran military personnel are to be charged the College's current in-state tuition rate whenever enrolling in Hocking College coursework." The tuition cost per quarter hour for online military education is $111.00 with a $50 per quarter hour distance learning/online course fee.

Tuition Funding Sources

Hocking falls under the Federal Tuition Assistance (FTA) cap and will allow you to take up to 28 hours each year without having to touch any other funding sources. Because the $4,500 annual TA allowance is renewable annually for as long as you are serving, it is sometimes the best option to use first, and then use your GI Bill benefits or other funding sources.

If Army, Army Reserve, or Army National Guard , you secure this FTA with our help through GoArmyEd . There would be no out of pocket expense to you through this process other than any books or materials that you may need to purchase for your classes . We have even waived our normal $15 application fee for student-Servicemembers!

Ohio Army and Air National Guard Soldiers have the additional option of applying for and receiving state scholarship money that has been set-aside especially for them. For more information or to apply, please visit the Ohio National Guard Scholarship Program.
