MyCAA Scholarship

The Military Spouse Career Advancement Account (MyCAA) Scholarship was created to help spouses pursue higher education.

  • The scholarship provides you with up to $4,000 of financial assistance for qualified programs.
  • AMU waives our $85/course technology fees when you use the scholarship to pay for courses.
MyCAA will cover tuition costs for programs leading to a career-oriented associate degree. See the MyCAA portal for further information.
You can apply for MyCAA if you are the spouse of a servicemember on active duty in pay grades E-1 to E-5, W-1 to W-2, and O-1 to O-2, and you can start and complete your coursework while your spouse is on Title 10 military orders. This includes spouses married to members of the National Guard and Reserve Components in these same pay grades.
