Resources for Military Students

Purdue University West Lafayette

Purdue West Lafayette’s Veterans Success Center (VSC) provides resources and support for veteran students and those still serving in the military, as well as their dependents. We offer benefits through the GI Bill®, the Post-9/11 GI Bill and the Yellow Ribbon Program.1 Benefits may also be available to the children of disabled veterans or those deceased due to service-related injuries. In the case of military call-ups, members of the reserves may receive partial credit or a refund on tuition and our staff will work with you to ease your transition when you return.
