Veterans may face unique challenges as they begin or return to
their academic studies. The following provides a starting point to
meet and greet other UConn veterans.
Veterans Affairs & Military Programs
The Office of Veterans Affairs & Military Programs provides
services to student veterans and service members including
Educational VA Benefits, special programs and events, staff
support, and assistance. The office also has a designated study
area, computer lab, and a coffee maker, refrigerator, and
microwave specifically for student veterans’ use.
Veterans Oasis
Located in the Student Union Room 224, the Veterans Oasis
serves primarily as a social lounge for our veteran population on
campus to relax in between classes. Featuring cable TV, public
access computers, and ample seating, the Oasis is a gathering
place for student veterans at UConn.
