Service to School (S2S)
Serves: Nationwide
Free college and graduate school application counseling for veterans and transitioning service members — one-on-one coaching from former admissions officers and counselors, with a 90% acceptance rate to applicants' top-choice schools.
Origin & mission
Service to School was founded in 2011 by veterans who experienced firsthand how difficult it was to navigate college and graduate school admissions without insider knowledge of what elite institutions actually look for. The insight: military service is extraordinary preparation for rigorous academic environments, but veterans rarely know how to frame it. S2S pairs veterans with former admissions officers and counselors who translate that service into compelling applications.
