Military Preference

PennWest prides itself on being Military friendly and we want to make certain your past service is honored here. Your military experience can yield Prior Learning Credits because we review your Joint Service Transcript if you are/were in the Army, Navy or Marines, and your CCAF transcript if Air Force.

We serve more than 400 veterans, eligible dependents, service members of the National Guard and Reserve, and active-duty service members by helping them:

• Navigate the GI Bill®

• Join the Veterans Club

• Get to know vital campus resources

• Obtain work-study jobs

By being former military, active duty, a reservist, military spouse or a dependent, you will increase your eligibility for certain scholarships, and earn tuition discounts. Learn more at PennWest.edu/military.
