Warrior-Scholar Project
Serves: Nationwide
Runs intensive, free academic boot camps that prepare enlisted service members and veterans to succeed at four-year colleges and universities. One-to-two-week immersive programs, hosted on campuses including many of the nation's top schools, build the academic skills, confidence, and college literacy that help veterans not just gain admission but thrive once enrolled — writing, critical reading, STEM, and navigating campus culture. Targets the jump from a structured military environment to independent academic work. Free to participants, including housing and meals during the program.
