a. In ArmyIgnitED, students will select their Active Education Goals and then select Apply for Funding.

b. TA requests that are within the Quality Assurance guidelines [Part of their evaluated plan, no more than 9 hours, and have no holds on account] will be automatically approved by the system. If any of these criterion aren’t met, the TA request will be sent to the education counselor for review.

Once verified by the Soldier or Education Center, the TA request will be auto approved. The soldier should see the Pending TA/Approved TA requests in ArmyIgnitED.

a. Course access will be granted when the Army TA Request is submitted to AMU. The Army will send TA request file each day to AMU. If all data sets match, course access will be granted, and students will be notified via email. 

b. The Student Degree Plan is the academic plan that shows the courses the student will need to take. To get TA approval the course will need to appear on the SDP. If the course appears on their SDP, then the TA approval is automatic. Course access is granted once we have TA approved TA confirmation. 

Students should be aware that AMU offers both 8- and 16-week courses each start month. If a student has registered for an 8-week session in their eCampus, they should select the coinciding 8-week TA dates in ArmyIgnitED. Selection of incorrect TA dates could lead to processing delays.

Students should also only request TA for one course at a time. If you have multiple course registrations and multiple starting dates, the TA for each course must match the registration selection exactly.
