Military Tuition & Fees
SUNY Canton is now fee-free for Active-Duty, Reservist and National Guard service members beginning in the Fall 2025 semester. The College will scholarship all comprehensive student fees.
This program builds upon several longstanding military-friendly policies and benefits, such as application fee waivers, priority course registration and academic credit for military experience.
Comprehensive fees, which are in addition to tuition, housing and book costs, are mandatory student fees that are charged per semester. Examples of comprehensive fees include athletic, technology, recreational and activity fees. Students could save up to $6,500 over the course of four years.
Questions and formal inquiries can be directed to Director of Military Connected Benefits & Recruitment Patrick Massaro at massarop@canton.edu or 315-386-7838.
Working while taking classes takes a lot of time and energy, so this program is going to allow me and other service members to focus more on work and school and worry less about the financial aspect of getting a degree.
