Veterans Education & Transition Support (VETS) Initiative
VETS, a new program at the University, brings together resources from several departments to make the transition to civilian life seamless and efficient for members of the Armed Forces.
Veterans often face numerous challenges as they transition from soldier to civilian, and those seeking academic pursuits either as returning students or first-time enrollees often face even greater challenges. The purpose of the VETS program is to assist student veterans with their individual and unique transition from military to civilian student as they persist to graduation through innovative academic programs, mentorship opportunities, and other engagement activities.
