For Military Spouses, a UMGC Degree is Built Around Life on the Move
"Don't wait for the perfect time, because it doesn't exist."
That's the advice that Kassandra Anne Hayes '26 offers other military spouses considering a college degree, and it reflects what she learned while earning her own. Hayes completed a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration & Management while stationed with her Navy husband and children in Tokyo.
She is one of the more than 9,400 University of Maryland Global Campus (UMGC) 2026 spring graduates. Sixty-two percent are affiliated with the military, including veterans and military spouses.
For many, earning a degree required adaptability, discipline, and a willingness to keep going even when personal circumstances shifted unexpectedly.
