Support Veterans Upward Bound

Veterans Upward Bound (VUB) assists veterans with transitioning into higher education. VUB serves 125 first-generation/low-income college-bound veterans annually. VUB is hosted by Wichita State University and serves a six-county area in Kansas (Butler, Harvey, Reno, Kingman, Sedgwick and Sumner counties). VUB participants can attend any institution of their choice.

VUB provides tutoring, financial and computer literacy workshops, career counseling, resume assistance, GI Bill navigation, FAFSA assistance, academic workshops (e.g.-grammar and math workshops), and referrals to community agencies.

On September 17th, the entire Shocker community will come together and support the colleges, departments, programs, student organizations and teams they love. Join the thousands of Shocker alumni, students, employees, parents and friends who are honoring our past and investing in our future to make a positive difference in our college and community.
