Veterans

The department of Special Programs, a division of Student Affairs, collaborates with faculty and staff to provide our student veterans a welcoming and helpful academic and social environment. Every effort is made for a smooth transition from military to academic life. Services to veterans include forums throughout the year providing an opportunity to meet and to discuss their concerns.  Financial assistance through veterans’ benefits is handled through the Financial Aid Office.

Applying for Veteran's benefits is handled through the office of the Registrar.
