Veterans Day, on Saturday, Nov. 11, offers an opportunity to recognize and honor service members. CU Denver is committed to supporting its veteran students, as well as their families, throughout their academic journeys, and the Office of Veteran and Military Student Services (VMSS) offers a variety of resources and services on and off campus.
CU Denver’s commitment to its students has been recognized by several organizations, including earning the university a spot on the 2023 Military Times Best for Vets: Colleges list, which is in addition to a 2023–24 Military Spouse Friendly School designation and a 2023–24 Military Friendly Schools: Gold Award.
