“UIS is fully committed to ensuring military-connected students have the support and resources to succeed. The values and diversity of UIS are reflected in our military-connected student population. We welcome students who are currently serving in the military, who have previously served (Veterans), or who are dependent family members. Our support of service members and their families is a part of our commitment to community service and leadership.”
Chancellor Janet L. Gooch
