College Station, Killeen among best places for veterans seeking higher ed
SAN ANTONIO – College Station ranked fourth and Killeen sixth on a list of ten best U.S. cities for veterans pursuing higher education opportunities. The study was commissioned by USAA and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce Foundation’s Hiring Our Heroes.
They were the only two Texas cities to make the list, which also included Tuscaloosa, Ala.; Lynchburg, Va.; Ann Arbor, Mich.; St. Louis, Mo.; Syracuse, N.Y.; Greenville, N.C.; Salt Lake City, Ut.; and Columbia, S.C.
“Higher education is one avenue that separating service members are encouraged to consider through the military’s Transition Assistance Program, and early planning can help them succeed,” said Eric Engquist, an assistant vice president at USAA and Army veteran.
