Military Dependent & Spouse Benefits
As a military-friendly school, Regent University recognizes that military spouses are the “heroes at home” who love and support our service men and women defending our precious freedom. We are proud and honored to support the education of our military spouses as a Military Spouse Career Advancement Account (MyCAA) school.
