Hello,
I am about to honorably separate from the military after completing my contract. I wanted to ask if there is any advantage in being a veteran when applying to the top ranked MFE programs when it comes to admission? Does being a US Citizen help in getting admission to these coveted programs? The GI Bill along with the Yellow Ribbon Program (for those of whom are familiar with it) will pretty much cover tuition costs for the majority of the programs.
In addition, are certain MFE programs in the top 10-15 schools more veteran friendly than others?
Briefly, I have a MS in engineering from a good state school with a high GPA and a couple of publications. I am in the process of studying for my GREs.
Any response is appreciated and will help in my application process. Thank you.
