Your Next Mission – Your Education

Integrity. Determination. Grit. These three attributes are what lead to success. They drive you to conquer challenges and obstacles head-on, with one purpose, to achieve your goal. These attributes motivate us, too. At Thomas Edison State University (TESU), we are committed to supporting our military at home and abroad. With 100+ online programs designed to fit the needs of military veterans, service members, and their families, we work hard to ensure that those who dedicated their lives to others, continue to succeed.

At TESU, your previous experience in and out of the classroom means more — more transfer credit and more savings. Your prior college coursework, military training, and hands-on experience on the job will be evaluated to help you obtain a shorter path to graduation.

No matter where you are, you can advance your education and career with the help of TESU and our dedicated military advisors. We believe in you and your success and that’s why we are here to help. But don’t take it from us, ask our alumni.
