Military & Veteran Success

The University of Pittsburgh at Greensburg supports our military and veterans through a combination of positive programs, such as the S.I.T.R.E.P. Military & Veterans Program, the GI Bill®, SALUTE Veterans Honor Society, the newly established Veterans Action Team, and a cooperative policy for active-duty students. 

Pitt-Greensburg is honored to be a eleven-time recipient of the Military Friendly Schools distinction by Viqtory Media. The Military Friendly Schools list is the premier media source for military personnel transitioning into civilian life.
