Davenport, IA, Jan. 29, 2008–Kaplan University today announced the launch of a 10 percent tuition discount for military spouses, on the same day that President Bush called for Congress to allow service members to transfer unused G.I.

Rosen, CEO and President of Kaplan University. "While military families can't predict when they will get permanent change of station orders, one thing that can remain constant is their college education. Kaplan offers military spouses the flexibility of earning a degree online that will help them enter a new career or advance in their current career regardless of where the military takes them."

Kaplan University already offers a 15 percent tuition discount to all active military personnel, who are able to earn their degrees online from stateside bases or during overseas deployments.
