Veterans and Service Members

Nationwide, veterans are one of the fastest growing segments of entering college students, and educational institutions are finding new ways to accommodate veterans' academic needs.

IUP is nationally recognized for its efforts to assist students with military service experience. IUP offers the following for veterans and service members:

ROTC (Reserve Officers’ Training Corp)

ROTC is of special interest to many students who are reservists or active in the National Guard program who may be eligible to enroll in this officer training.

Veterans’ Support Group

The Counseling Center runs a veterans’ support group for students who are current or former members of the military. The group discusses issues faced in the military community as well as any issues involved in transitioning to the campus community. This is a drop-in group and does not require a commitment to all sessions.

Veterans Outreach Committee

Composed of students, faculty members, and administrative staff, this committee meets regularly to improve university services to students who are veterans.
Veterans Day Photo Slideshow

Several of IUP’s student veterans contributed photos from their time in service.
