Friendly reminder for everyone using Tuition Assistance: Your GPA matters! 📈

To keep using your benefits without interruption, you need to maintain:
🎓 A 2.0 GPA (C or better) for all undergraduate courses.
🧠 A 3.0 GPA (B or better) for all graduate courses.

Falling below these grades can lead to having to pay the money back (recoupment).

Also, remember the new policy: two recoupments in one fiscal year will result in a 12-month suspension from requesting both FTA and CA. Keep up the great work and finish strong!

• The service member died in the line of duty while serving on active duty, or
• The member of the Armed Services died from a service-connected disability within 120 days of
being discharged from active duty or released from duty, or
• The member of the Selected Reserve died in the line of duty other than active duty, or

🚨 This is IMPORTANT if you’re using education benefits 🚨

Most people get this wrong 👇

❌ Myth: CA recoupment doesn’t affect FTA
✅ Fact: 2 recoupments in one fiscal year (TA or CA) = you lose BOTH benefits for 12 months

That’s a full year without Tuition or Credentialing Assistance 😳

👉 Stay on top of your classes
👉 Avoid unnecessary recoupments
👉 Protect your future
