Service to Service — Military and Veterans Support

Expanding graduate education and career pathways for veterans and military families in public service

The Bloustein School is pleased to participate in Service to Service, a national initiative led by the Volcker Alliance and We the Veterans and Military Families. The program connects veterans and military families with public service education pathways, helping them transition into impactful careers in public leadership. 

Launched in October 2024, Service to Service aims to help participating schools increase enrollment of military-connected students in their respective master’s programs, enhance support services, resources, and professional development experiences, and connect graduates to job placements in state and local government. 

The Bloustein School will collaborate with Rutgers and government partners to provide comprehensive support and guidance to students to promote retention and degree attainment. The Bloustein School will leverage its partnerships with state and local government agencies to facilitate placement of Service to Service graduates in high-need public sector roles. 

Under the Service to Service agreement, admitted military and veteran applicants who accept admission to any Rutgers Bloustein School’s master’s program via Service to Service are eligible for scholarship funding consideration.
