Synopsis

Each year hundreds of thousands of service members leave the military for civilian life. As part of this transition, many enroll in a postsecondary education program. The transition from a highly structured military environment to a college or university can be overwhelming for veterans, who may confront a variety of barriers in their quest to earn a degree. Aside from having a break in their education, many veterans feel rusty as students and find it challenging to relate to their peers, faculty, and staff, and to navigate the numerous assistive resources on campus and within their communities. Drawing on decades of experience in the military and higher education, Life During College: The Veteran’s Guide to Success, provides straightforward guidance for veterans looking to earn a degree. This book discusses the many issues that transitioning veterans are likely to encounter as students, including: • The differences between military and college culture • Developing effective, efficient study habits • Connecting with your school • Managing finances and maximizing benefits • Cultivating the skills employers are seeking • Devising a plan that is practical and engaging
