Your service to our country is appreciated! The office exists to ensure VA and DoD educational benefited individuals, currently serving, veteran, spouse, or dependent, are able to put those earned benefits to use at Minot State University. The MRC provides academic and financial guidance along with access to physical and mental health wellbeing support, that includes campus and community service referrals as needed.
