    SALUTE is the first national academic honor society established for student veterans, and active military, in 2-year and 4-year institutions of higher education. Another unique element includes a 4-tier system, which is designed to encourage undergraduate student veterans to strive to improve their GPAs and advance to higher tier levels (and scholarship brackets) in the honor society during their academic careers.
