Posse is a leadership and merit-based scholarship program that sends post-9/11 veterans with academic and leadership potential to top universities in groups of ten, or "posses". The program offers academic support and mentorship, career guidance, and guarantees 4 years of full-tuition coverage even if your post-9/11 benefits run out. 

To be qualified you must be:

• An honorably discharged Veteran, current Reservist/Guardsmen, or active duty service member
• Be eligible for Ch 31, Ch 33, or other education benefits
• Not already hold a Bachelors degree (current students or those with Associates degrees welcome!)
• Be available for a one-month, pre-college training program in July 2021
• Demonstrate academic potential and leadership experience in your work, home, or community
• Want to attend a top university in a group of 10 veterans
