Our Mission Is Making College Affordable

No wonder we've had so many Armed Forces graduates.

At American Public University, we believe in educating, inspiring and making dreams come true for the many, not just the few. That’s why we offer financial assistance and everything else to make your transition from military base to virtual campus as seamless and affordable as possible. Just one small way we can thank you for your service.

Books and Materials

A University book grant provides ebooks at no cost to all undergraduate students. A hard-copy textbook is provided at no cost if an ebook is not available. Some programs will have additional course material costs not covered by the University book grant. Simply select the course in your Academic Plan to review the required materials.

Please note that our Preferred Military Rate provides ebooks at no cost for master’s-level courses for active-duty servicemembers, National Guard members, Reservists, and military families, (parents, spouses, legal partners, siblings, and dependents.
