Join UCR’s Community of Student Veterans
The Veterans Resource Center (VRC) is a place created by and for UC Riverside veteran and military-connected students. It’s where you’ll find (and give) support, camaraderie, and understanding. Drop by and take a break, access resources, study, and just visit with friends.
Take advantage of the study lounge complete with computers, free printer access, blue books, and scantrons. Refuel with a free cup of coffee or snack from the fridge. Put your feet up and watch a little TV between classes.
The VRC is also your connection to campus and community resources. Our full-time coordinator is here to provide guidance, help you access benefits, and get the tools you need to succeed. Peer-to-peer support, mentoring, and networking opportunities are available to help you keep up and get ahead.
See how the VRC helps veterans succeed both personally and professionally at UCR!
