Does Wagner College have any special services or programs for military students?

I've been exploring prospective colleges to apply to and Wagner college popped up. I'm curious, is there any particular service or program beneficial to military students like ROTC or scholarships exclusive to them?

Absolutely, Wagner College does indeed have a few services designed to assist military students. First and foremost, they offer a 'ROTC' program in partnership with other institutions in the New York City area. In this program, you can participate in military training while majoring in any desired field of study.

Importantly, Wagner College is also a proud participant in the Yellow Ribbon Program. This is a provision of the Veterans Educational Assistance Act (also known as the Post-9/11 GI Bill), which helps to cover the cost of tuition and fees that exceed the amounts payable under the Post-9/11 GI Bill. Eligible students can receive scholarship funds from the college, which are then matched by the Veteran's Administration. This is of particularly great relevance to military students, as it can make a significant difference in easing financial stress related to tuition and other college expenses.

Lastly, Wagner College has a dedicated Veteran and Military Resource Center which can provide veterans, active duty members, and their dependents with the advice and guidance necessary to navigate college life, both academically and socially. The focus here is on ensuring that military students can successfully transition into college life and pursue their educational goals without undue difficulty.

In summary, between the ROTC option, the Yellow Ribbon Program, and the dedicated center for military students, Wagner College certainly strives to support its military students. It's always best to directly contact these programs or Wagner's admissions office if you have more specific questions about these services.
