Oregon Offers Free Tuition for Some Family Members

Apr 04, 2008 in Children's Education, Veterans

Oregon state universities are offering free tuition for family members of veterans killed or 100% disabled since 9/11. There are other qualification requirements. We’ve attached information from the Oregon University System website as well as the application for this program. It is a horrible reality that many of our brothers and sisters did not make it back home or came back severely injured. This program can help their families continue on without concerns about higher education.

States Consider Compact Regarding Military High Schoolers

Mar 24, 2008 in Children's Education

The North Central Illinois News Tribune is reporting today that several states are considering a compact that would make it easier for military high schoolers to graduate. The story reports that items such as temporary transcripts, graduation requirements, and extra curricular group involvement (i.e. Honor Societies) would be standardized to ease transfers for kids of active duty servicemembers.

This proposed change could make life a little simpler for the thousands of military families uprooted every few years.
