Support for Our Student Veterans
At RCBC, we are proud to honor and support our student veterans. Our dedicated Veterans Services staff and welcoming vet center lounge are on the first floor of the Student Success Center. Our staff is here to guide you every step of the way.
Whether you need help navigating your education benefits or accessing any benefits offered by the Department of Veterans Affairs (DVA), we’re here for you. Beyond education, our team is committed to assisting student veterans and community members in making the most of the available resources.
If you’re a veteran, a dependent of a deceased or disabled veteran, or an active-duty military member, you may qualify for monthly educational assistance through the Veterans Administration while pursuing your education at RCBC.
Stop by the Veterans Center inside the Student Success Center today to learn more about how we can support you on your journey. We look forward to meeting you!
