Nicholls State University understands that veterans routinely encounter extraordinary obstacles in their college careers. A 19-year-old freshman can be called up in the middle of a semester and be forced to drop their entire schedule of classes. Returning from oversees deployment, you must re-enter the academic world with a workload that appears insurmountable. You don’t feel like a “traditional” student, and you aren’t-you have chosen to serve your country.
The following individuals are aware of the special challenges facing veterans and would like to help. Our Veterans Advocates are faculty that veterans can call on for information, advice, understanding, or just help working their way through university rules and regulations. Feel free to contact any of the Advocates listed below.
