American Military University - Why consider it?

2005-10-11T09:09:00.000-05:00

MILITARY FOCUS

More than 80 percent of American Military University's (AMU) 12,000 students are active in the military, making AMU one of the nation’s largest providers of higher education to the U.S. Armed Forces. Our founder and many of the staff and faculty have military experience, and everyone associated with the University shares a passion for providing relevant and affordable education to those who make the sacrifice to serve the USA.

Why do so many military members choose AMU? Our students appreciate that the curriculum, class delivery, and services are uniquely designed around the needs of military members. Read on for the details…

CUTTING EDGE, RELEVANT PROGRAMS

It's all about career-relevant options. Students choose from a curriculum that includes more than 1500 courses and over 50 undergraduate and graduate degree programs. Whether you’re seeking knowledge and skills that will benefit you in your military career, or you're anticipating a transition to the civilian job market, AMU offers specialized programs that get you where you want to go.

AMU offers one of the most comprehensive military studies and national security curricula outside the Department of Defense. Specialty programs in strategic intelligence, homeland security, security management, and transportation and logistics management cover just a few of the degrees our students pursue.

AFFORDABILITY

AMU is the smart choice for budget-conscious service members.

Despite significant rate hikes commonly found throughout the industry, tuition at AMU has remained stagnant for more than five years, at $250 per credit hour. And non-tuition related fees (that are likely to come out of the service member’s pocketbook) are kept to a minimum.
In fact, AMU has established a book grant so that undergraduate students do not have to purchase their own books or pay shipping costs, regardless of where they are located. This represents a huge savings for our students, since typical course material costs at a university can total several thousand dollars over the period of the student’s enrollment. This grant is available to all AMU undergraduate students who are seeking academic credit for their courses, and is applicable throughout a students’ enrollment in the undergraduate program.

CONVENIENCE & FLEXIBILITY

At AMU, the individual matters. We are here to serve you, and we help you work your studies around your military commitments.

Afraid of losing credits when you PCS? About to be deployed? No problem. AMU goes with you wherever you go. All of the courses are delivered over the Internet. Our students are located in 110 countries, and thousands currently taking classes are deployed. The asynchronous course delivery means no specific login times are required. Simply log on and download your assignments when it’s convenient for you during the week.

At AMU, you can progress through your degree path faster. First, courses start monthly, because we know your personal commitments don’t always align with a traditional semester schedule. Second, we offer 8&16 week sessions for many classes, so you have the option to take more intense, 8-week courses when your schedule allows. Finally, you won’t have to worry that a course you sign up for will be dropped at the last minute due to low enrollment.
