Veterans

Ultimate Medical Academy (UMA) is a dynamic career school committed to educating students in the healthcare field. We strive to provide an educational experience that maximizes value to our students in a professional, supportive and ethical environment.

Nowhere is the spirit of this mission more apparent than in our active support of employment education for veterans. UMA is dedicated to expressing our sincere appreciation for the service and sacrifice offered by our veterans through much more than just words alone. We provide the following veterans affairs educational benefits:

• Special military eligible pricing

If you are considering obtaining the education required to help you navigate a new career, our Military Admissions and Student Finance Advisors would like to help you get started and understand your VA education benefits.

To discover if you qualify for these education benefits and more under the Post-9/11 GI Bill, we encourage you to choose your degree and fill out the form, or speak with a UMA Military Financial Aid Advisor at 888-205-1001.

 Transition Guidance

Whether you want to advance your military career or prepare for a future in the civilian marketplace, the right education can mean the difference between achieving or forfeiting your future goals. Without experienced assistance, the adjustment from a military lifestyle to the civilian community can be particularly challenging.

Retired military job opportunities do exist. Ultimate Medical Academy’s (UMA) Transition Assistance Program (TAP) and Army Civilian Alumni Program (ACAP) exist to ensure that you transition smoothly and successfully from military to civilian professions. There are many civilian job opportunities for military personnel, and our flexible online associate degree programs specifically address the growing needs of today's healthcare industry.

The potential of your post-military career is far greater than you may think. TAP and ACAP provide comprehensive workshops and professional guidance to military members and their families at select locations. These programs can lead to job opportunities for retired military, employment search opportunities, including important education and VA benefits information.

There are transition assistance programs, and there’s UMA. To explore eligibility and discuss your options, choose your degree and fill out the form or call 888-205-1001 to speak with a UMA Admissions Advisor.
