Veteran Students

GI Bill® guidance, veteran-friendly schools, and vet support

Veterans guide for:

  • Transitioning to civilian life
  • Recently separated service members
  • Returning to school after time away

Whether you’re pursuing a degree for career advancement, retraining, or long-term stability, this guide connects you to resources built specifically for veterans.

How this guide works

Education decisions after service are different from those made while on active duty. This guide helps you explore veteran-specific benefits, schools that support veteran students, and degree paths aligned with post-service careers, without repeating active-duty guidance.

Education After Service Is a Transition — Not a Restart

Veterans bring discipline, experience, and leadership into education, but the transition still comes with questions.

From understanding benefit timelines to choosing programs that align with civilian goals, planning ahead helps you maximize both your benefits and your time.
