University of Saint Mary Veterans Services
Welcome to the University of Saint Mary Veterans Services office. We're here to serve you as your primary source for information on eligibility requirements, admissions, and other important resources for students with military obligations.
On these web pages, you'll find access to forms, details on benefits like the GI Bill and other resources, and information for new, returning, and transfer students.
The coordinator of USM's veterans office is himself a veteran, with 24 years of military service on his record. This office understands the unique challenges you may face transitioning to student life and is sensitive to the issues faced by both our veterans and active-duty students.
Contact us with questions about your:
- enrollment application
- student loans
- VA benefits
- textbook purchases
- other needs that may arise
We appreciate everything you've done for our country and everything you add to our university community. Again, we're here to help. Contact us any time.
There are a wide range of benefits available for military students. But it's important to keep a few key precautions in mind to protect those benefits:
-
USM does not handle re-certification. To maintain your benefits, you must complete a Veterans Certification Request Form every semester. Forms are available in the Registrar's office and online.
- Depending on your particular benefits program, you may need to make monthly attendance reports to the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs WAVE service.
- Contact the USM Registrar's office any time you make an academic change. You should notify the registrar when you add or drop a course, change your major, or intend to withdraw from school. Make sure personal information, including your address, is kept up to date.
- You must meet USM requirements for academic progress. If you are suspended for failing to meet those guidelines, you must be reinstated at USM before resuming your education benefits.
