Golf Academy of America Named “Military Friendly School”

The Judging Committee for Military Advanced Education magazine’s Guide to America’s Military-Friendly Colleges and Universities has made their selection and Golf Academy of America has been chosen for inclusion in the 2009 Guide. This selection is designed to call attention to schools that go above and beyond to make it easier for our men and women in uniform to advance their careers by enhancing their educations. This honor is recognized as one of the most respected in the area of higher education for military personnel.

Golf Academy of America, a school with more than thirty years of experience in preparing students for careers in the business of golf, has continued to enhance its services to members of the military and their dependents. The school currently offers a dedicated web site and a separate Military Student Center, designed to be able to give accurate and informative information to those seeking to make use of the military educational benefits to which they are entitled. The Center is staffed with personnel who understand the various programs available to active duty military as well as to veterans, and are adept in explaining the various options. They are able and willing to help prospective students, whether they intend to enroll at Golf Academy of America or not.

Harold Jensen, Manager--Military Operations, at Golf Academy of America (and sister school Virginia College), says, “We are thrilled with this recognition from one of the most authoritative resources for information about military education. Our staff works hard to stay up to date with all the changes in military education benefits and proud of the role we play in helping those who serve their country to achieve their dreams of pursuing a career after their service.”
