In-state tuition for eligible Utah ROTC students

Beginning July 1, 2026, Utah public colleges and universities must give eligible ROTC students in-state tuition. You must be enrolled and participate in your school's Reserve Officers' Training Corps (ROTC) program. You must also be eligible to enlist in a U.S. military branch. You do not have to meet the school's usual residency rules. This can lower your tuition bill, but the law does not specify the savings amount.
