Why you should attend?

Chico provides a comprehensive success-oriented program for student veterans by creating an atmosphere that far exceeds the basic need for educational benefits. Our Student Veteran Organization (SVO) was founded in 1967 by veterans of the Vietnam Conflict and is one of 20 founding chapters of the Student Veterans of America. SVO is the key stakeholder of VEST (Veteran Educational Support Team), that consists of 12 service professionals on campus that collaborate with agencies in the community to promote a successful transition for our student veterans. We created a Student Veteran Center on our campus in 2010 that is exclusively for student veterans to enjoy their unique culture in a safe environment. The campus celebrates several times each year with public events to promote this culture.
