Admission Tips

  • Admissions Essay
    The admissions essay gives you the opportunity to be creative and present a strong argument about why you would be an excellent student for your chosen school and program.
  • Application Materials
    Careful planning can help you create an application that distinguishes you from the competition.
  • Give Yourself Some Credit
    Jump-start your education by converting your military experience into college credit.
  • Letters of Recommendation
    Schools use letters of recommendation to learn more about you.
  • The Path of Least Resistance
    Why you shouldn’t pick a school based solely on the credits you can get for your military training and experience.
  • Résumé Details
    A sloppy résumé tells school admissions counselors that you’re a sloppy student.
  • Translate Military Experience Into Civilian Terms
    When you prepare your résumé, you must translate your military jobs and accomplishments into something that a school counselor can understand.
