Veterans Integration to Academic Leadership (VITAL)

The Veterans Integration to Academic Leadership (VITAL) program is a U.S. Dept. of Veterans Affairs initiative designed to enhance academic retention and success by addressing the struggles of transitioning into college and university life. The VITAL Coordinator can help ease this transition through dedicated services for mental, physical and supportive services both on campus and in the surrounding community. Whether a student veteran needs help with setting up academic accommodations, stress or time management, clinical mental health conditions, coordination of physical or mental health care through campus or VA resources, or simply enrolling in VA health benefits, our Texas A&M Vital Coordinator is here for you and you can meet him below! Additional information on the Veterans Integration to Academic Leadership program can be found here.
