Veterans' Club

We strongly encourage all veterans to join OC Veterans' Club, your student organization.

The purpose of the Student Veterans Club is to:

Help veterans acclimate to college life
Provide information regarding services available to them on and off-campus,
Provide a support group
Promote awareness of veteran students to the campus community

Statistics show that students who assimilate to campus life by developing associations with like-minded students or faculty members have a higher degree of success.

The Club meetings are bi-weekly. Call 805-678-5845, check your student emails or stop by Student Services Building 2nd floor for the next meeting date.
