Veteran Success Center

Texas Southmost College welcomes all veterans and their families. TSC is committed to maintaining an environment of academic success and professional development for all of its students. TSC thanks our Veteran students for their service to our country, and we hope to provide a level of service and atmosphere that conveys our appreciation. The mission of the Veteran's Office is to: (a) support veterans and family members by providing resources to facilitate the transition from military to academic life and (b) provide an environment where veterans can gather to share experiences and support one another through the educational process.

TSC is approved to educate and train service members, veterans, and their eligible dependents through U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (DVA) Education Benefit Programs as well as the Texas Hazlewood Act Exemption regulated by the Texas Veterans Commission. Students providing a certificate of eligibility for entitlement to educational assistance under Chapter 31 (Vocational Rehabilitation and Employment) or Chapter 33 (Post 9/11) will not be imposed any penalty, be denied access to TSC facilities, or be required to pay tuition and fee charges (based on entitlement percentage) as long as the student:

• Provides the certificate of eligibility for entitlement to educational assistance no later than the first day of class, and
• Submits a Request for Certification form available in the office located in Oliveira Student
  Services Building or on the Veteran Success Center website.
• Meets any other requirements and eligibility.
