"I’m the first student to benefit from Pace’s new scholarship for military veterans,” said Snyder, a sergeant in the Marine Corps Reserve. “It knocks 50 percent off the tuition, so I couldn’t pass it up. Also, I knew Pace had a great reputation as a world-class school. How could I go wrong by choosing it?"
