"Vets Helping Vets"

 Post-secondary education is not specifically set up for non- traditional students, such as most former or current military.  After spending several years serving our country, many retired or younger veterans realize the importance of getting their education.  Not having been in an academic setting, it is helpful to have a support group and some academic assistance as they adjust to school once again.  Our veterans are successful in our classes and subsequently in college, because they come back to school with a commitment to themselves, their families and a goal to achieve. 

Veterans Upward Bound is dedicated to providing VETS all the support their need.
