EXPERIENCE EXCELLENCE
Education Support for Military Veterans
We facilitate this by pairing veteran applicants with our Ambassadors who mentor applicants through the admissions process. S2S Ambassadors are service-oriented people, who have achieved success in higher education themselves, and are now paying it forward.
Once paired with an Ambassador, you will work together on all aspects of your applications
College Fit & School Selection
There are no one-size-fits-all solutions for college. You will reflect on the range of needs you have then evaluate your school and program options against those needs. Ambassadors will help you research programs and colleges that align with your academic goals and personal interests.
Peer-to-peer Mentorship
S2S’s peer-to-peer mentorship goes beyond just the application process. Peer-to-peer mentorship offers veterans a chance to converse with someone who has gone through and understands the application process and can help translate their military story to an academic audience.
