* Veteran Orientation Class - All universities require students to take an orientation class. Here at UK, we have a course that is exclusively for veterans. This course is taught by the Veteran Resource Coordinator who is a 28 year veteran of the United States Army.
* Job Placement - The University of Kentucky is the largest employer in the state of Kentucky! We have many federal work-study positions just for students that allow you to tend to your studies while you earn cash.
* KY In-state Tuition Rates for Eligible Veterans - The University of Kentucky offers eligible Post 9/11 GI Bill education beneficiaries resident tuition rates for those who enroll as a non-resident. This benefit is exclusive to veterans and dependents who are utilizing the Post9/11 GI Bill.
* Military Transcript evaluation and accreditation - Our Veterans Resource Center will review your military transcripts and award you credit for all ACE credit. Many courses you completed in the Armed Forces will count towards your course work and electives. Unlike most universities there is no limitation on awarded credit. This greatly expedites your graduation!
