Joining the Military

While serving your country is often viewed as an option prior to earning a college-level degree, enlisting in the military is a viable option for any graduate.

Upon earning a bachelor's degree (or higher), graduates have the opportunity to join different branches of the military at an officer level. This means that the work they do in the military is more specialized and less entry level. There is typically an initial commitment of four years active duty, but it depends on the service and job.
