Center for Veteran Services
At Miami University we are proud to be in the top 15 percent of national colleges, universities and trade schools that are doing the most to embrace America's military service members, veterans and dependents as students. As Yellow Ribbon- and Purple Heart-designated, the Center for Veterans Services will help you navigate through your benefits paperwork and connect you with other veterans and military-affiliated students attending Miami.
About
The goal of the Center for Veterans Services, on Miami University’s Hamilton and Middletown campuses, is to provide support for the best possible collegiate experience for student veterans, preparing them for their post-military role in society. Our staff will go above and beyond to ensure that your military experience translates into as much academic credit as possible. We know you've learned countless skills during your tours of service and we want to make sure that those are adequately and honorably recognized.
Student Veterans Association
Connect with a support network for military veterans, their families, and civilian supporters. Membership is open to Regionals veterans and military-affiliated students and to anyone wishing to offer support for veterans and their families.
Hear from our Veterans
Alberto Garay
US Navy
Alberto Garay takes advantage of Miami Regionals’ tuition assistance and the Work+ program as an undergraduate student, allowing him to save his GI Bill benefits for graduate school. This allows the Navy veteran to maximize his military benefits for future education.
Yellow Ribbon Program
If you are classified as a non-resident student and have 100% Post-9/11 GI Bill® eligibility, you may qualify for the Yellow Ribbon program. Miami University is a Yellow Ribbon school. Yellow Ribbon scholarships are limited and made available on a first come, first served basis per VA regulations. Please contact the One Stop for further details.
Purple Heart Institution
In October 2015, Miami University Regionals was designated a Purple Heart University by The Military Order of the Purple Heart.
Faculty and staff across academic departments, along with staff members from Admissions, Financial Aid, and OneStop, have completed Military-Friendly Training that includes a pledge to be active-military members, veteran, and veteran-family friendly. Trained faculty and staff have a thorough understanding of military terminology, the military mindset, academic and financial issues specific to veterans, benefits available to veterans, transfer of military training to college credi, and military training that aligns with specific academic programs.
Veterans Outreach Collaborative to Impact Success
The online resources available on this website are in addition to services offered by a dedicated group of individuals who comprise the Veterans Outreach Collaborative to Impact Success (VOCIS) representing the Offices of Admission and Financial Aid, Academic Advising, Learning Assistance, Counseling, Student Affairs, and the VA.
We are continually trying to improve the services we offer all our students, including the establishment of the Center for Veterans Services.
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact us.
