HUNTSVILLE – The University of Alabama in Huntsville has launched the Charger EDGE (Educational Discount for Graduate Excellence) program. The program offers a 25% tuition discount for eligible new and returning graduate students.
With more than 70 master’s degree and graduate certificate programs, UAH offers flexible scheduling options, including on-campus and online classes, to accommodate working professionals across numerous disciplines.
“At UAH, we’re committed to empowering our students and supporting the workforce needs of our region,” said Dr. Jon Hakkila, associate provost of International Services and Academic Integrity, and dean of the graduate school at UAH. “The Charger EDGE program will help local nurses, engineers, scientists, teachers and other business professionals upskill and advance their careers by making graduate education more affordable and flexible — right here in the Tennessee Valley.”
The tuition discount applies exclusively to in-state tuition for Alabama residents and select Tennessee counties for the 2025-2026 academic year. New graduate students, as well as returning students who have been inactive for at least two consecutive fall and spring terms, are eligible to apply for master’s degree and graduate certificate programs.
In addition to the tuition discount, these new domestic graduate applicants will receive a waived application fee — a $60 value.
The application deadline is Aug. 6; classes start Aug. 20. For application instructions and full program details, visit the Charger EDGE program page.
