“Service to School Empowers Veterans to Enter Top Universities “

For nearly 15 years, the brave men and women of the United States Armed Forces have given their blood and their lives in overseas missions from Iraq to Afghanistan.

An estimated 2.8 million Americans have voluntarily served in what has become the longest war in U.S. history, and more than 1 million have completed service and returned home during the same period of time. While many of their friends finished high school and went off to college, these men and women answered freedom’s call, and joined the armed forces to serve a cause much greater than themselves.
