Texas Army National Guard and UTA settle tuition assistance issue

The Texas Army National Guard will continue to offer tuition assistance for active members attending the University of Texas at Arlington.

Questions about the assistance were raised earlier this month when the Texas Army National Guard warned that it will not pay up if schools  bundle tuition. (See the story that ran in the Austin American-Statesman with local feeds from the Fort Worth Star-Telegram.)

UTA bundles tuition and fees so students know what their school price tag will be.

The Texas Army National Guard announced on June 19 it reached an agreement with UTA and that another one is pending with the University of Texas at Austin. (Check out the announcement here.)
