Student Veterans
Our community of veterans, both students and faculty, understand the challenges individuals and families face when transitioning from service to school. Because they’ve been there. With our Student Veteran Center employees and student military programs such as Books for Battle Buddies, we give you the tools you need to succeed at UCCS and beyond. You're also able to take advantage of facilities designed to propel you forward, such as our McCord-Herbst Student Veteran Center, the Gallogly Recreation and Wellness Center and so much more.
Unique Student Veteran Center
Our McCord-Herbst Student Veteran Center serves as a place for students to study and socialize with other veterans. Also housing the Office of Veteran and Military Student Affairs, we proudly provide transition assistance in the form of financial, social and academic support.
Peer Advisors for Veteran Education
PAVE is a support program that connects incoming student veterans with current student veterans to assist them as they transition to academic life.
Robust, Flexible Support
Our programs and services support you while you’re in school and after. Purchase reduced-cost textbooks, get guidance and mentorship to better understand work environments, connect with peers through the Student Veteran Organization and find comprehensive health care through our Wellness Center and Veterans Health and Trauma Clinic.
