University Studies for Student Veterans is a collaboration between the Columbia University Center for Veteran Transition and Integration, the School of General Studies of Columbia University, and the Columbia Center for Teaching and Learning.
Columbia University launched the Center for Veteran Transition and Integration to have a direct and lasting impact on the issue of veteran transition and upward mobility by creating and providing access to the best-in-class tools and programming veterans need as they transition from active service to college and the workforce. We welcome the opportunity to assist higher education institutions (both 2-year and 4-year), military installation education services officers and transition assistance programs, veteran focused non-profit organizations, and more. To get started, contact the Columbia University Center for Veteran Transition.

The School of General Studies of Columbia University is the finest liberal arts college in the United States created specifically for returning and nontraditional students seeking a rigorous, traditional, Ivy League undergraduate degree full or part time. The School of General Studies has been educating military veterans for 70 years. Since World War II, GS has served veterans who interrupted their educations to serve their country. They bring a wealth of life experience to the classroom, and contribute in a unique way to the diversity and cultural richness of the University. [ Ссылка ]
