Navy Tuition Assistance cannot be used for which degree type?

• A. Bachelor's
• B. PhD
• C. Associate's
• D. Certificate programs

Answer: (B)

Navy Tuition Assistance is intended to support undergraduate-level education and professional certificates that directly enhance a Sailor’s job skills and readiness. Doctoral studies go beyond what TA typically covers, both in cost and in policy scope, so they’re not funded under this program. That’s why PhD work isn’t eligible, while undergraduate paths and certificates are. So, Bachelor's, Associate's, and Certificate programs are eligible because they fall within the undergraduate or certificate categories that TA is designed to support, whereas a PhD sits outside that scope.
