Military Spouses

Military Benefits

Military spouses who use benefits from their service member qualify for UCM's military tuition package.

Spouses who relocate to Missouri with an active duty service member can submit a copy of military orders to the Military and Veteran's Success Center to receive resident tuition rates and opportunities for resident grants and scholarships! 

Programs

UCM's MyCAA Program in Partnership offers a variety of completely online certificate programs with "0" out-of-pocket cost.  Eligible military spouses can receive a $4,000 scholarship.  The MyCAA program is designed to help eligible military spouses gain the training needed to start a rewarding career.

 How to Get Started

Step 1:  Determine your eligibility and create a MyCAA account. 


Visit the MyCAA Portal to create your MyCAA account and verify your eligibility with the Defense Enrollment Eligibility Reporting System (DEERS).



Step 2:  Choose your career path.



Select a UCM training course that will prepare you for an in-demand, portable career and is eligible for MyCAA funding. See the UCM MyCAA Catalog for popular courses.  Additional certification courses can be found here.  If you would like a certificate/certification that is not listed in either area, please contact our MyCAA Program Coordinator for more information at wafb@ucmo.edu.
