Men and women who have served in the United States military, often choose higher education following their service, especially in the field of cybersecurity. This path can help them adapt to the civilian lifestyle and give them a fulfilling career. However, we also understand that not everyone has the means to pursue a degree.
For this purpose, multiple education grants and scholarships are offered to first responders, military veterans and their families. This is also a fitting act of thanking them for having served the country bravely and faithfully. EC-Council University offers one such financial assistance program for US military veterans and first responders to help them start a new career.
All degree programs offered by EC-Council University (ECCU) are covered by the Cybersecurity Veteran’s Scholarship. This financial assistance program has been designed to offer support to new or current undergraduate and graduate students. This scholarship is also our way of thanking the US military, first responders, and their families for their service to the community and country.
The award can be continual through the program of study in a scholarship amount of 20% of tuition for selected applicants. It is to be noted that the funding for the scholarship is limited and is awarded on a need order basis each term until funding resources are exhausted.
