Helping Veterans, Currently Serving, and Military Family Members utilize their military benefits at University of South Carolina Aiken.
The University of South Carolina Aiken Office of Veteran and Military Student Success Center (VMSS) is dedicated to the continued success of our veterans, service members, and military families. As a leading and award winning university in veteran education and career placement, we strive to connect veterans to one another, their communities, and their futures; we provide answers, not advice.
We are the subject matter experts in veteran related programming, student veteran issues, and G.I. Bill application at USC Aiken. We dedicate ourselves to the progress of student veterans and military family members beginning with initial contact. Although our direct support may no longer be needed after graduation, the bonds and foundations for success built here will live on.
Our overarching goal is Veteran and Military Student Success, which is where we found inspiration for our name. By partnering with the Augusta/Aiken Warrior Project, transitional counseling services, and the Veterans Administration we are equipped to assist our students with a smooth transition from military life as well as with academic success.
We ensure that our center and members of this community feel at home. If our veteran and military students do well, so do we. Success is a journey, not a destination.
Provides services and support to the veterans and military members of our country’s Armed Forces in their educational pursuits as they transition from their military service through the university to becoming vital community members.
