A Military-Friendly University

Selected as a 2025-2026 "Military-Friendly School," Drexel University recognizes and appreciates the service and sacrifices of our nation's active and veteran military personnel. That's why we make it as easy as possible for servicemen and women and their families to advance their education.

Eligible Veterans May Attend Drexel Tuition Free

Drexel is among a small group of universities with no cap on the number of veterans who may enroll through the Yellow Ribbon Program, which provides tuition-free education to eligible veterans. Find out more on the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs website.

Earn a Top-Ranked Degree From Anywhere in the World

Drexel’s convenient 24/7 online course delivery allows active duty servicemen and women to earn a top-ranked degree from anywhere in the world. With 10-week terms and programs that start four times a year, Drexel makes it easy to fit courses into your busy schedule.

Reduced Tuition for Servicemembers and their Family

Active military personnel, veterans, National Guard, or Reserve, and their immediate families (including spouses, children and parents) are eligible for a 10–54% tuition reduction. Find out more about our reduced tuition rates. Be sure to use "MILITARY" as the affiliation code on your application.

U.S. Military members, including Veterans, Active Duty, National Guard or Reserve, and their spouses qualify for a waiver of the new student matriculation fee. Servicemember dependents who are using their education benefits may also qualify for this waiver.
