When it comes to getting a degree, veterans and their families often face challenges non-veteran students don’t. American Military University (part of APUS) President, Nuno Fernandes understands this on a personal level.
We hear how his humble upbringing in Portugal, mirrors the challenges that inspired many Americans to join the military in the first place.
But despite the challenges of transition from military service, veterans have proved they have the grit and determination to succeed, and Fernandes describes how American Military University is designed specifically for them.
We hear how AMU keeps college tuition affordable, open to the entire family and offers personalized career assistance from veterans on staff.
We also examine how veterans outperform traditional college students and hear
some incredible veteran graduate success stories.
