Military Deferment
- Rowan University offers a military deferment for any student registered with the military services office. This special deferment is cost free to the student and holds their entire bill until the 3rd of the last month of the semester for payment. This allows any payments that are coming from the Department of Veterans Affairs to be added to your account prior to payment. Students must sign up for the deferment every semester to activate it and you can sign up if you have a previous balance.
State Benefits
- Veterans may be entitled to state benefits through their Department of Veterans Affairs. Check out your eligibility by state.
Rowman accepts federal student aid and military tuition assistance to make degree programs even more affordable to the military, reservists and Veterans. You can stack scholarship with other VA resources including:
- Endowed Scholarships
- Military Appreciation Scholarship for Veterans and Dependents
- Rowan University Scholars Program
- Alumni Scholarships
- External scholarships
Need based federal and State financial aid is determined by the Free Application for Federal Student aid (FAFSA).
Matt Ruiz '10 Builds Career Thanks To ROTC Scholarship
Matt Ruiz, a CPT Exercise Planning Officer, used his Armed Services Assistance ROTC Scholarship to earn a liberal studies degree, which helped him build life skills that he now uses as an office in the United States Army. "I would say that the biggest thing, getting the scholarship and doing the ROTC program here, it will set you up for success in your future Army career and civilian life," says Ruiz '10.
