Members of the Armed Forces hailing from California have played an instrumental role in the development and strength of our military capabilities. Not only have countless thousands of troops cycled through this state as part of their training in addition to native Californians; the state’s many advanced research facilities have successfully birthed key R&D projects throughout history, with more on the way.
In addition to its sheer size, the state’s geography and position along the Pacific Rim have always made it crucial to national defense. The varied terrain and climates make it ideal for training in mountainous and desert environments while the vast expanses of dry lake beds are perfect for testing ordinance and prototype aircraft.
These are just some of the reasons why California is home to massive military installations and more veterans than any other state in the nation.
But veterans also prefer to call California home for another reason: it’s commitment to the well being of the veteran community. An important part of this focuses on education.
Active-duty servicemen and women, discharged veterans, and their families all have access to state-level education benefits in California, that augment or take the place of federally sponsored VA benefits.
You’ve served your country, now it’s time to plan for your future with the education benefits you’ve earned.
California Department of Veterans Affairs (CalVet) Military Education Benefits
CalVet is the state agency dedicated to ensuring active-duty military, discharged veterans, and their families can easily access the benefits they’ve earned. You can think of CalVet as a liaison that helps coordinate between state and federal agencies to maximize your benefits.
CalVet also advocates for quality when it comes to educational opportunities for veterans. It’s the host agency of the California State Approving Agency for Veterans Education (CSAAVE). Any post-secondary education or career training program in the state eligible to accept GI Bill® benefits must get CSAAVE’s stamp of quality approval, including:
- On-the-job training sites
- Apprenticeships
- Flight schools
- Public and private certificate-granting schools that may or may not be accredited
- Accredited private and public degree-granting universities and colleges
CalVet is also your go-to agency for navigating state-located education benefits you’ve earned through your service.
State University Troops to College Program
The University of California (UC) and California State University (CSU) systems together comprise 33 campuses that host over 763,000 students every year. The CSU system offers over 1,800 degree programs while the UC system enrolls more than 1,600 veterans annually.
The UC and CSU systems are committed to helping those who’ve served our country transition from military life to academia and pave a path towards a promising career and stable family. Every UC and CSU school guarantees:
- Admissions and financial aid information that’s tailored specifically to veterans
- Counseling for housing and financial aid prior to enrollment
- Veteran-specific campus resources like veterans’ service coordinators and veterans’ education benefits specialists
- Campus events and programs specifically for veterans
- Priority registration for classes for veterans
California’s Troops to College program applies to the UC and CSU systems, and extends beyond to state California Community Colleges. Its goal is to help veterans and their families have a seamless transition to civilian life, deal with combat-related stress, and make smart well-informed academic decisions. This is done through a course taught by a combat veteran that’s open for enrollment to any veteran and their families.
VA Work-Study Program
If you’re taking advantage of other benefits like the GI Bill® and are at least a 3/4-time student then you, or your dependents, could qualify for this program.
Work-study as part of this program means you’ll be employed at an approved facility in California such as:
- CalVet
- Your school's veterans affairs' office
- VA regional office
- VA medical facility
You earn at least either federal minimum wage (currently $7.25 hourly) or California’s minimum wage (currently $14.00 hourly), whichever is higher. Schools can offer even better wages to cover the difference between what non-military work-study students earn in a job that’s equivalent to the one you’re working.
This program goes beyond what the GI Bill® and other federal benefits cover; it lets you earn money to put in your pocket while giving you job experience to put on your résumé at the same time.
California National Guard Education Assistance Award Program (CNGEAAP)
This benefit covers up to 100% of your fees and could apply to you if you’re serving in the California National Guard (CNG) or State Military Reserve (SMR). This benefit could be used at California Community Colleges, within the CSU and UC systems, and at other qualifying public and private schools. You must meet the following conditions to be eligible:
- Have been an active member in the CNG or SMR for at least two years, and remain as such for the duration of your studies
- Use this benefit to obtain a degree or certificate that you don’t already have
- Take at least three academic units per term
- Be a California resident as demonstrated by paying in-state tuition
- You cannot also be receiving Cal Grant money
The CNG and SMR are glad you’re serving with them, and they want to help you get even more qualified so your value as a team member increases. This is a win-win, because you can choose your civilian career path and get a qualifying education out of it to boot.
College Fee and Tuition Waiver for Disabled, MIA, KIA Veteran Families
California supports its veteran community, and this means supporting the family members of veterans who are KIA, MIA, or totally disabled due to wartime service. Spouses and children get free tuition and fees waived under this benefit at all CSU, UC, and state California Community Colleges.
This program is separate from the federal Chapter 35 program and in most cases cannot be used concurrently with it, with some exceptions being made for children and Medal of Honor recipients.
The degree options and participating schools in this program abound, with 148 participating schools and hundreds of academic programs. Being separate from Chapter 35 gives the additional option to strategically apply that benefit somewhere else.
In-State College Tuition for Active-Duty, Discharged Veterans and Their Families
This benefit applies to all schools in the California Community Colleges system, and schools in the CSU and UC systems; 148 schools in total. Under this program you’ll pay in-state tuition even if you’re not from California. You can qualify through one of the following ways:
- If you’re already discharged you need to have been stationed in California on active duty for at least a year immediately prior
- If you’re on active duty and stationed in California; this also applies to spouses and children/dependents
This benefit is applicable to both undergraduate and graduate studies, however there’s a two-year limit for active-duty graduate studies and a one-year limit for family member graduate studies.
The schools participating in this benefit have hundreds of undergraduate and graduate programs to choose from, and the difference between in-state and out-of-state tuition can quickly add up. According to our research on military friendly colleges in California, the average savings for in-state versus out-of-state tuition at public schools works out to over \$9,000 for undergraduate studies and nearly \$8,900 for graduate studies every year.
Possible Station Assignments and Military Bases in California
California’s military bases have played an instrumental role in the development and strength of our Armed Forces. Its home to some of the largest bases from all branches of the military. It’s not uncommon for those in uniform to spend their entire term of service in California, though it’s just as likely that you’re here for training and then moving on.
Whatever your mission is in California and whatever branch you serve in, you’ll experience life at one of the following bases that the state is proud to host. You’ll be glad to know that as a veteran you’re already eligible for some of California’s education benefits the moment you set foot in the state.
Naval Base San Diego
Known popularly as the 32nd Street Naval Station and the home of the Pacific Fleet with 54 ported ships, this base is second in size only to Naval Station Norfolk. 35,000 military, civilians, and contractors come to work every day at Naval Base San Diego, and on-base housing provides a place to stay for 4,500 people.
Historically home to some of the most important watercraft in the Navy’s fleet, this trend continues today as the base hosts Littoral Combat Ships, the Navy’s most advanced and newest fleet. NBSD is a city unto itself, providing things like family services, entertainment, shopping, dining, and even education.
NBSD also hosts satellite campuses from at least three colleges and is in close proximity to at least five additional universities and colleges in the San Diego area. You can find more information on educational opportunities at Naval Base San Diego by contacting its CNRSW Navy Voluntary Education Region Advisor in Building 3280 B103/104 TSC Complex.
Vandenberg Space Force Base
Christened with its Space Force title in 2021, VSFB is situated on nearly 100,000 acres of land that host 16 launch sites which to-date have seen more than 2,000 launches. Historically specializing in ICBMs, it was only natural for this facility to expand its role to include outer space and satellite launches with the advent of the space age.
Systems stationed here have included Atlas, Nike, Titan, Delta IV, and Falcon 9. Today this base’s partners include the DoD, Air Force, United Launch Alliance, SpaceX, and other commercial enterprises.
In addition to launching satellites, Vandenberg also hosts three of them. That is, on-base satellite college campuses, and it’s in close proximity to other colleges and universities in the Santa Barbara area. Vandenberg’s Base Education Center has resources for all on and off-base education and is located at 641 Utah Avenue, Building 13640.

Military Friendly Colleges in California that Accept GI Bill® and Yellow Ribbon Program Benefits
Of the more-than 2,000 colleges and universities that participate in the Yellow Ribbon Program, only around 500 provide full funding and place no limits on the number of eligible students who can take advantage of it. These schools ensure that every eligible veteran who enrolls can count on full coverage of all tuition costs that exceed GI Bill® limits.
