Question
Are Reserve Officers eligible for tuition assistance?

Answer

Naval Reserve Officers on active duty are eligible for tuition assistance (TA) only when they have orders to active duty extending two years beyond the expected term completion date of any TA-funded course(s). This service obligation runs concurrently with any remaining obligated service time. The agreement does not obligate the military service to retain the officer on active duty. See OPNAVINST 1560.9A dtd 4 MAR 2008 (page 3) and NETCINST 1560.3 dtd 20 JAN 2011 (page 2-1).
