As a UBalt student, you can join ROTC as part of our partnership with The Johns Hopkins University. You'll get 100 percent of your college tuition paid for in return for the participation in the program, and upon graduation you'll be commissioned as an officer in the U.S. Army.
The Office of the University Registrar can answer questions about transferring credit from other colleges and universities, prior military education and examination programs.
This amount depends on your status as a full-time or part-time student as well as your percentage of eligibility. At the full amount, with 100 percent eligibility, it is equal to the Basic Allowance for Housing for an E-5 (regardless of your prior rank/grade) with dependents at the ZIP code of the University of Baltimore (21201).
During the spring and fall semesters, undergraduate students must take 12 credits to be considered full time for purposes of veterans benefits. Graduate students must take 9 credits.
As long as your Semester Enrollment Form has been filed with the Office of Financial Aid in a timely fashion, UBalt will place an indicator on your account, and you will not be removed from classes while the University awaits payment from the VA.
Please contact our VA certifying officials at veterans@ubalt.edu. Generally, benefits must be registered with your home institution's certifying official, who will provide you with a guest letter to bring to the second institution.
The Office of Disability and Access Services (Academic Center, Room 111) offers support to students who need accommodations on campus and in the classroom. For specific questions, please email cea@ubalt.edu or call 410.837.4775.
