Who We Are<\/h2>\n

The transition from service member to student is often a difficult one and the Veterans Success Center (VSC) is here to help bridge that gap.<\/p>\n

At UT, our goal is to create an environment where student veterans can thrive in areas of academia, leadership, and connectedness. By facilitating this intentional support, the VSC extends learning beyond the classroom, builds community, and provides transformative experiences.<\/p>\n
