Robert Morris University To Offer Free Tuition For Veterans (Pittsburgh Business Times)

"Robert Morris University announced Thursday it will offer veterans of the armed services free tuition for graduate and undergraduate degrees," the Pittsburgh Business Times reports. "With its newly created RMU Military Service Award, the Moon Township-based private university will cover the difference between its full-time tuition and a federal tuition subsidy offered to veterans under the Post- 9/11 GI Bill. The offer is open to all veterans, not just Pennsylvania residents. The federal subsidy is equivalent to the highest tuition of any public institution in the state in which the veteran chooses to attend college. The school also announced it is opening a Veterans Education and Training Center to help veterans and their families with transition services, and assist with enrollment."
