At UC Irvine, providing equal opportunities for students with disabilities is a campuswide responsibility and commitment.

VETERAN SERVICES

UCIrvine welcomes and encourages members of our military to pursue graduate study at our campus. Veterans Services provides veterans, reservists, and their dependents assistance in obtaining the educational benefits earned through your military service. The office is responsible for submitting benefit requests for new and continuing students to the V.A., as well as answering any questions veteran students or dependents may have concerning their educational benefits.

The Graduate Division will also work with academic programs to provide disability accommodations, as appropriate, when recommended by the Disabilities Services Centers.
