Yes. Many soldiers were in college or had just finished when the war started and they enlisted. During the war, there were very few soldiers who were allowed to return to college.
Take my father for example. He was in college when the war started. He was able to enlist and leave for the army 3 or 4 months before he was due to graduate. The college mailed him his diploma. His college degree helped him rise in rank. However, he choose to stay with his unit and this limited him to promotion of only Staff Sergeant(4 stripes). When the war ended and they were still in Europe, he was selected to teach other soldiers classes that would help them get a job.
