Welcome to the University of Kentucky SVA. The SVA serves the student veteran community by working with the Veterans Resource Center, Veterans Resource Team and Student Government in order to facilitate the needs of non-traditional students.  Here are just a few reasons why UK is the best-

* 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!
* Housing Assistance - The University of Kentucky will provide graduate housing to               veterans at an affordable price.
           Our units include:  Efficiency Apartments and family apartments ranging from 1-3                            
           bedrooms right on campus.
UK CAMPUS HOUSING
* 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.
