Determine military and veteran student status

In order to connect with military and Veteran students attending your institution, you will first need to know who they are.

This can be achieved in a few different ways.

Connect with military and veteran
students

A Military and Veteran Friendly Campus (MVFC) Peer Mentorship Program is designed to match incoming and current military or Veteran students with experienced students/alumni/staff/ faculty who have Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) military or reservist backgrounds.
