The National University System was established in 2001 to meet the emerging challenges and demands of education in the 21st century. The System is uniquely aligned to connect a diverse population of students to a network of innovative educational programs that are relevant to their lives, careers, and the marketplace and are delivered in a format that respects competing life priorities.

With the population of student veterans expected to soar, the need for military scholarships has never been greater. Due to recent defense budget cuts and the drawdown of military operations in Iraq and Afghanistan, these young men and women are returning home en masse. 2.4 million servicemen and women who enlisted or received commissions after Sept. 11, 2001, have already separated from service, and more are on the way. The National University System Institute for Policy Research – a local think tank – estimates that more than 16,000 post-9/11 veterans will move to San Diego County by the end of this decade.
