EDD is Florida’s state tuition assistance for Florida National Guard members. It pays 100 percent of the resident rate at Florida colleges and public universities, and the highest current resident rate at accredited private institutions. It pays up to $218.71 per credit for undergraduate courses, $265.35 per credit for graduate courses, and $15.00 per clock hour for technical courses, and can also reimburse approved books and instructional materials. You can use it for vocational and technical schools, certificates, associate, bachelor’s and master’s degrees, and professional licence and industry certification exams.
Submit the EDD application through the Florida National Guard EDD online portal, which requires a Common Access Card. For help, call 904-823-0339, 904-823-0223 or 904-823-0352, or email ng.fl.flarng.list.edd-office@army.mil.
