From the Director of Military and Veteran Student Success

Happy Friday Military Knights!!!  Our MVSS team sincerely hopes you and your family made it safely through Hurricane Milton.  Our thoughts and prayers are with those across the state who are still struggling to recover to include our friends at the USF Office of Military and Veterans.  Due to damage suffered they have been working remote this entire week and are still uncertain if they will return to the office on Monday.

Currently our team is working on three new programs which will launch in the Spring Semester.  These programs are focused in academics, entrepreneurship, and internships.  Much more information to follow – our intent is to continue building a military community where everyone feels welcome, and we all have a sense of belonging!

Also, time for a BIG announcement…the VA recently released the updated Post 9/11 GI Bill information.  UCF is now the 20th largest school in the country for the number of students utilizing Post 9/11 VA Benefits.  This is incredible news for our community!

Lots of great events happening this semester…check out our events page to learn more. UCF Strong!!!

GO KNIGHTS!!!

UCF Student Recognized by Secretary of Veteran Affairs

During a recent interview with the Secretary of Veteran Affairs, UCF Alumni and Air Force Veteran Chris Velazquez was mentioned for his service and achievements as a military student.  “Here’s what else hasn’t changed. Like generations before, them, Veterans still make the very best students. I’m thinking of Vets like Chris Velazquez from Camden, New Jersey, who joined the Air Force because of his sense of duty, and to prepare himself for the future. After Active Duty, Chris reached out to Vet services at the University of Central Florida and used his GI Bill benefits to earn his degree in Mechanical Engineering. Today, Chris works on some our country’s most advanced defense systems at Lockheed Martin in Orlando.”

Congratulations Chris, thank you for your service and being a stellar representative of the University of Central Florida!
