        <p>The State University of New York at Albany is committed to improving the lives of our Military service men and women by offering support to their spouses and dependents. Both military spouses and their dependents deserve a high-quality education that will benefit their career and improve their family’s well-being. More importantly, they need a career path that's portable, so relocation never gets in the way of reaching their goals. As a military member, your spouse and dependents may be eligible to receive tuition assistance and benefits. <!--<p>Veterans Affairs aims to assist student-veterans with their collegiate career both in and outside the classroom here at the University at Albany.</p>--></p>
