CollegeRecon is a website created with the mission of empowering military veterans and their families by uncovering education opportunities to utilize G.I. Bill ® and tuition assistance programs  at accredited colleges and universities.

Their Military Scholarship finder tool co-exists with their college discovery platform to help military veterans and their dependents find — and pay for — education opportunities and their website clearly breaks down much needed information such as GI Bill details, the Yellow Ribbon Program (which can fill the gap left by the GI Bill), military friendly colleges, and scholarship opportunities.

In a world where for-profit entities often prey upon servicemembers, CollegeRecon was built with the military community in mind. It partnered with Student Veterans of America on a student-veteran “reviews” tool and is the preferred search tool of the Veterans Education Project and it powers the American Legion’s virtual education center.

The site also goes a step further in finding education opportunities that correlate with military experience, such as highlighting degrees in Business, Computer Science, Criminal Justice, Nursing, Paramedics, Engineering, or Construction Management.

It can be overwhelming to sift through those military benefits, but when it comes to education, it looks like CollegeRecon is making things a lot easier. If you or your family are looking to use up your education benefits or find what opportunities are available out there, check out CollegeRecon.com.
