Cypress College’s upcoming Veterans Resource Center (VRC) will support the transition, integration, and development of student veterans at the college. The center will offer educational and support services to veterans on the Cypress College campus.
The building will be the centerpiece of the Veterans Education Resource Complex, which includes a tribute garden, veterans memorial bridge, and outdoor event plaza. The Student Activities Center will also be renovated as part of the project.
The VRC will comprise private counseling rooms, social space, a patio, and computers. Services offered will include assistance with admissions and financial aid, veteran’s benefits, academic and personal advising, success and retention services, career development, and advising services.
The project is slated for completion in 2020.
