Relevance Score
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth last week expelled more than a dozen elite colleges from the Senior Service College Fellowship, a small leadership pipeline that will affect fewer than 80 students across 15 universities this fall. The cuts leave broader Tuition Assistance largely intact for roughly 200,000 service members, even as AP analysis found about 350 used the benefit to attend targeted schools and over 50,000 studied at American Public University System.
