National University, a veteran-founded nonprofit, and the San Diego Padres are teaming up to support the U.S. military by awarding $5,000 scholarships to 10 outstanding servicemembers or veterans.

For more than two decades, the Padres have recognized and honored men and women who serve and are recognized as “The Team of the Military” throughout professional sports. Now, the Padres are partnering with National University to help military servicemembers pursue their higher education goals and further their careers.

As San Diego’s largest nonprofit university and Yellow Ribbon school, NU proudly serves active-duty and veteran students from all branches of the military who are earning their college degrees at home, on base, and abroad. In fact, 25 percent of NU’s student body is active-duty or veteran status.
