Student Veterans
The Veterans Resource Center (VRC) provides guidance and services to all military and military-affiliated students and their families. The VRC works to ensure that students get the support they need to transition smoothly into an academic setting and civilian life. Through individualized resources and in-person social and educational workshops, the Center strives to create a student veteran community that helps students identify and achieve their goals and turn their military experience into academic and career assets. Services include academic support, career services, assistance with benefits, campus and community outreach, financial planning, internship and networking opportunities, life skills workshops, and volunteer opportunities. The Veterans Resource Center is located on the first floor of the Technology Center.
