Penn State Helps Army Recruits Move Toward College Education
U.S. Army recruits can now get a jump on a Penn State education as the University has joined on to be a part of the Army's Concurrent Admissions Program (ConAP). ConAP is designed to help soldiers begin to talk with a university immediately after enlistment, so they can begin and potentially complete a bachelor's or master's degree while in the Army. Since distance education through online learning is the preferred method for soldiers to gain their education, soldier students can begin their education online through Penn State World Campus. All 24 of Penn State's campuses are participating in ConAP, so soldier students can complete a degree online or on campus. This is great for the soldier students, because it provides the flexibility to gain a Penn State education even when they move to different installations during their military career.
