Why you should attend?

At Collin College, we take pride in being a top Gold Award Winning school for the 2023 Veterans Education Excellence Recognition Award (VEERA) from the Texas Veterans Commission. Our Veterans Resource Center is staffed with experienced professionals who provide VA Health Net access, a study lounge, a computer lab, and free printing and snacks for our military students. We offer various coursework options, including online, hybrid, and on-campus classes, to cater to the needs of our military students worldwide. Our experienced staff members have military affiliations and are always ready to assist with benefits, transitions, disabilities, and mental health. At Collin College, we accept all military benefits at the federal and state levels. Additionally, we waive fees for active-duty members, offer military scholarships, and waive out-of-state tuition for all military-affiliated students. We understand that transitioning from military to civilian life can be stressful, which is why we offer one-stop enrollment and one-on-one support to ensure that veterans or their dependents know how to utilize their benefits to their advantage. Our personal representatives have expert knowledge of all things military and are always available to assist with anything they need. At Collin College, we set the bar high for other schools around the state and the country.
