The transition from volunteer service, and for some, continued service in the military, to a college student can be an unfamiliar and a challenging experience. Our goal is to support student veterans to become comfortable and aware of campus and community resources focused on academic success.

Celebrating 20 Years at Nebraska!

Deb, Congratulations on 20 years of service! We want to say thank you for your commitment and dedication to serving our students. We appreciate you and everything you do here at the Military & Veteran Success Center.
