Starting July 1, all dependents of military servicemembers stationed in Virginia will be eligible for in-state college tuition rates.

No member or dependent will be required to change their official residency to Virginia from another state to receive in-state tuition rates, as long as the student remains enrolled in school.

The in-state tuition rates remain even if a student transfers between two Virginia schools.

Active-duty members will continue to be eligible for in-state tuition rates in Virginia by using the Tuition Assistance education benefit.

The difference between in-state tuition rates and out-of-state is substantial in Virginia.
