Update History
May 18, 2020 - Section V.C. was revised to incorporate amendments to Chapter 32 of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes Title 51 (Military Affairs) which expanded in-state tuition eligibility to include PA National Guard members’ spouses, surviving spouses, and children, who are eligible for benefits under the Military Family Education Program (MFEP), beginning in the academic year 2020 - 2021. Previously, only the PA National Guard Member was eligible for the in-state tuition rate.
