Excelsior University

Accredited and not-for-profit, Excelsior University has been delivering on its mission to provide educational opportunities to students since 1971. Excelsior has a long history of welcoming learners from diverse backgrounds, particularly those who do not see themselves reflected in traditional higher education. With a long-standing commitment to veterans, military service members, and their families, Excelsior has been named a Best College by Military Times and recognized as a Military Friendly and Military Spouse Friendly School. Excelsior accepts military credit, including credits earned through military training and experience, as well as credit from CLEP and DSST exams and courses from other accredited colleges and universities.

No application fee, a generous transfer credit policy, tuition discounts through partnerships, and financial aid programs such as military tuition assistance and veterans benefits/GI Bill® can help lower costs. Students can choose from more than 35 degree programs, some with hybrid options. Military-focused admissions counselors and academic advisors support students, and students have access to support and resources when needed. Learn more here.
