Military Support During Sequestration
CMU Global Campus continues to support our military members and Veteran's during sequestration cuts. In addition to our significantly reduced military tuition rates, CMU offers payment plan options, financial aid advising and an outstanding Veteran's Resource Center to assist our service members in understanding the various financing options available to them.

In addition, CMU Global Campus wants to ensure our active duty students who are approaching their final semester do not lose momentum. Therefore, we have established a new grant to assist military members who are one semester away from completing their CMU degree. The Military Degree Completion Grant will assist students who are on track to graduate during the summer semester to complete their academic goals. Details will be announced shortly at: global.cmich.edu/militarygrant.
