1. Norwich University: Founded as a military college in the earlier 1800s, Norwich maintains a strong tie with military tradition. They provide an integrated military and civilian student lifestyle which is advantageous for those from military schools.

2. Virginia Military Institute (VMI): As a military college, it fosters a profound sense of community and shared purpose among cadets, faculty, and staff. Anyone coming from a military high school would find common ground here.

3. The Citadel: Known for its strong military culture, The Citadel has strong affiliations with branches of the U.S. military and its community of cadets and veterans.

4. Texas A&M University: In addition to their Corps of Cadets program, they also have a Veterans Services office that provides assistance to veteran students, making it a choice destination for students from military schools.

5. University of Colorado Boulder: This university is among the top-rated public university for veterans. It offers a dedicated veterans center and resources, including academic advising, personal counseling, and tutorial assistance.
