Unparalleled Support for Military Students <\/h2>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
\n

For more than 100 years, non-profit Golden Gate University has been helping military students achieve their professional goals. Originally founded as a night school by the YMCA, Golden Gate University has a rich tradition of serving military veterans. This connection began in earnest in the early 1900s, when returning World War I veterans enrolled in the University\u2019s law programs. <\/p>\n

Golden Gate University\u2019s rich history and experience with adult learning make it a natural fit for veterans and members of the military. GGU\u2019s modern history with the military began following an invitation to offer degree programs on Hamilton Air Force Base in Marin County, California in 1967. This program fit the needs of the military so well that, within a year, it had spread to three bases and ultimately included nearly three dozen teaching facilities and 36,000 enrollments on military bases across the United States. <\/p>\n

The program was highly revered by students and commanders alike and offered classes designed for military schedules and motivations. Graduates of GGU programs eventually included admirals and astronauts, with students across all service branches. <\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<\/section>\n\n\n

The veterans center at GGU is staffed by a team of coaches, a community and digital events manager, and our Veteran Ambassadors who work closely with other university resource offices such as the VA Certification Office and Office of Accessible Education. We also keep and seek out close connections with area and national Veterans Service Organizations (VSO) as well as the Veterans Administration. Our team members are all veterans or military spouses, and some are students themselves.<\/p>\n
