Veteran and Military Affairs
It’s time for us to serve you.
We know the college experience for veteran and active duty students isn’t exactly traditional. That’s why we offer the tools—social and educational programs, unique study spaces, guidance, information, and referrals—to help you succeed, in and out of the classroom.
We’re here for you. And we’re here for the community. We regularly offer programs to the UTC community that increase awareness of the unique needs of student veterans.
Veteran and Military Affairs' mission is to provide the best possible support services to active duty service-members, veterans, reservists, and their family members.
