Warrior-Scholar: The Veteran’s College Success Kit

This free course teaches veterans to unlock their enormous potential to excel in the college classroom. Through a mix of direct instruction, lively classroom discussion, and tailored readings and activities, the College Success Kit provides a first-of-its-kind course applicable to every veteran pursuing a college education. The course was designed by leaders at Warrior-Scholar Project, a national nonprofit that has supported thousands of enlisted veterans to and through college over the past fifteen years, in collaboration with Yale University’s digital education team and with generous funding from the Northrop Grumman Foundation. It meets student veterans where they are, speaking to the unique challenges of transitioning from the military into higher education. There are five modules in this course, each containing essential information that helps veterans not just survive college, but thrive. Modules can be completed in isolation and in any order, though we recommend starting with the first module and working through them sequentially.
