VetSuccess
Texas A&M University-Central Texas was chosen as one of the first seven schools in the nation to have an on-campus counselor from the Department of Veterans Affairs.
The VA has placed a full-time, experienced Vocational Counselor on the TAMUCT campus. This counselor will serve as a "one-stop liaison" for Veterans, active duty military and their eligible family members who attend or plan to attend TAMUCT.
The VetSuccess on-Campus program is a collaborative effort between Texas A&M University-Central Texas (TAMUCT) and the United States Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) with the purpose of providing a supportive, on-campus environment where Veteran-students may gather to obtain assistance and peer support.
The goal of the program is to assist Veteran-students in making a smooth transition to college life and to successfully complete their educational programs.
