Default College out of the U.S?

Quick question that I could not find the answer to any where else and if you do please post the link.

Can an individual graduate from a school overseas such as Lancaster or Oxford and still be in the U.S. military? I know there are citizenship rules but I did not know about educational rules.

Thanks.

Not sure what military you're talking about, but the US military does attract some top talent on occasion. Our senior leadership is generally well and highly educated.

There is an international equivalency organization to validate college degrees from different countries. I am 100% sure that a 4-year degree from oxford validates to the US equivalent, but you could google the list and find out for sure. You will be fine.

You don't even have to be a US Citizen to be in the military, unless you want to be an officer.
