Veteran Student Life
About Veteran Student Life
The University of Maryland is a Center of Excellence for Veteran Student Success (CEVSS) and received a generous grant through the FIPSE to further address the academic, financial, physical, and social needs of student Veterans on campus through the U.S. Department of Education.
The University of Maryland recognizes the extraordinary contributions of members of our armed services and we understand the unique challenges of transitioning into a university environment. We are committed to providing an environment that helps veterans pursue their academic and personal goals, explore different learning experiences, and get involved in campus life. Through Veteran Student Life, we offer a hub for resources that serves veterans and military-connected students, staff, and faculty on campus.
