Rutgers students and faculty, along with alumni and staff, have served in the U.S. military since the American Revolution.

This year, as the new GI Bill takes effect, Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, will welcome a growing number of National Guard and Reserve members and veterans returning from service in Iraq, Afghanistan, and elsewhere. You, and those who will come home in the years ahead, have earned our respect, admiration, and support as you begin a new phase of your lives.

To help make your transition to college life as smooth as possible and your college experience rewarding and productive, we offer support to new and current student veterans and Reserve component personnel through a variety of programs, services, and resources on our three campuses.

• Applying to Rutgers
• Financing Your Education
• Essential Rutgers Offices and Resources
  • Academic Support
  • Health and Counseling Services
• Our Community Support

Our three campus veterans services coordinators are available to answer questions and help veterans, eligible dependents, and active duty personnel find support as you pursue your educational goals at Rutgers.
