3. Talk to a Campus Veterans Coordinator
Each of the Universities of Wisconsin has a Campus Veterans Coordinator who can talk with you about veterans’ services and refer you to other specialists at the university to answer questions about academics and special opportunities offered at that campus.
Wisconsin Technical College System campuses offer extensive career advising and have counselors who can answer your questions and refer you, as appropriate, to other campus resources. Please contact the college or campus you are interested in.
If you have previously served
Knowing what federal and state benefits you are eligible for, and how much you are entitled to under each benefit, is an important first step in your decision-making process.
For information on all services and benefits available to you as a veteran, see your County Veterans Service Office (CVSO).
