Military-Connected Students
Dartmouth’s military-connected community includes more than veterans and current service members. Students across Dartmouth’s undergraduate, graduate, and professional schools who are military spouses, dependents, or family members of veterans and service members are also an important part of our community.
The Office of Military and Veteran Support welcomes military-connected students from across Dartmouth and can help connect you with resources, community, and the appropriate offices within your school.
Some students may also be eligible to use VA education benefits based on a parent or spouse’s military service, including Chapter 33 – Post-9/11 GI Bill transferred benefits and Chapter 35 – Survivors’ and Dependents’ Educational Assistance (DEA).
Students using these benefits should work with the School Certifying Official for their school for enrollment certification and with their school’s Financial Aid Office for questions about how VA education benefits interact with financial aid.
Find Your School Certifying Official in Dartmouth Veteran Contacts!

The Veterans Employee Resource Network provides community and connection for Dartmouth employees who have served in the Armed Forces, current service members, military spouses and partners, family members of veterans, and others who support the military community.
The network offers opportunities for networking, professional development, mentorship, service, wellness, and community engagement.

Supporting Military-Connected Students
