Many Hats - My GSC Teaching and Advising

As the Academic Advisor at Granite State College Portsmouth I have many advisees who are enlisted in the military.  Pease Air National Guard is located less than a mile from where we hold evening college classes and is a convenient way for these men and women to take advantage of obtaining a degree.  Many of the students are also pursuing an associates degree from the Community College of the Air Force (CCAF) or have recently completed that degree. 

Granite State College has a great program that grants college credit for their military training.  A Bachelor of Science in Applied Studies (BSAS) works in conjunction with their military credits as a technical/career focus and students receive 24 or more credits towards the major component of a BS degree. They then choose an option to further round-out their career goals: Management, Allied Health Service, or Education & Training.  In addition to taking the general education courses such as math and English, students include classes in one of these focus areas to meet their specific career needs. 

Have you been or are you now in a branch of the military service?  Visit an Academic Advisor at Granite State College and learn how easily you can get an education and career advancement.
