Meet Our Staff

Veteran and Military Services aims to assist and support, coordinate resources and benefits, and provide guidance to military-affiliated students, service members, veterans, and their families at Jacksonville State University. In addition to administering and providing guidance related to educational benefits, the Veteran and Military Services Office will assist in connecting students to support services offered across campus and in the community. Being a military-friendly campus is directly tied to Jax State’s motto of being “The Friendliest Campus in the South” and directly contributes to the University’s recruitment and enrollment efforts.
