MC's Combat2College Program helps student veterans access academic and social resources. Veterans' lounges on each campus provide them a place to go between classes.


We're honored to have students who are veterans of the armed forces, active-duty service members, reservists, and guardsmen. 

We strive to create a welcoming environment for veterans and service members who want to advance their education. We offer immediate in-county tuition rates for active duty service members, reservists, Maryland National Guardsmen, and their dependents, and flexible withdrawal procedures in case of activation, enlistment, or deployment. 

Our dedicated team of coordinators will work with you to help you achieve your educational goals and make sure you are receiving the benefits to which you are entitled. Contact us anytime for assistance.
