Military Affiliated Students Resource Fair (MASRF) 2025

We are bringing the local veteran service providers to you!

Come to the Prairie Rose room (2nd floor of the Memorial Union--see map below) on Tuesday, September 9th, 2025 - 9 am to 4 pm. Drop in anytime during the day before, after, or in-between classes.

Learn about what veteran benefits you or your family may qualify for, and get expert assistance with the application process. If you don't qualify yet, find out what may be available to you in the future.

We'll have a free breakfast buffet in the morning, a free snack smorgasbord in the afternoon, and we'll be giving out meal tickets good for a free lunch in the West Dining Center!
