SHREVEPORT – The Louisiana Board of Regents designated LSUS as a 2024-2025 Governor’s Military and Veteran Friendly Campus. 
 
LSUS implements a number of programs that create sustainable and meaningful pathways to degrees and other credentials for the military community. 
 
The University works with members of the active-duty military, veterans, and their qualifying family members to access educational benefits available to them from their military branches, state and federal governments, and other entities. 
 
Staff in LSUS’s Veterans Resource Center and Admissions are specifically trained to assist current and former military members. 
 
LSUS helps enroll members of the Air Force, Army, Coast Guard, Marines, Navy and Space Force by assisting service members in navigating the Military Tuition Assistance landscape. 
 
“LSUS is proud to be recognized once again as a Governor's Military and Veteran Friendly Campus,” said Evan Harris, director of the Veterans Resource Center. “We’ve got an amazing crew here made up of military veterans, military spouses, and military dependents who want nothing more than to see our students succeed. 
 
 “Whether it’s helping apply for the GI Bill or connecting someone to local and federal resources, we’re happy to serve everyone from the military community.” 
 
Military members, veterans and their qualifying family members have opportunities to pursue bachelors, masters and doctorate degrees as well as a host of professional credentials and other continuing education programs using an array of benefits. 
 
With the vast majority of LSUS graduate programs and a growing number of undergraduate degrees offering 100 percent online options, that flexibility allows military members and their spouses to start and continue their education no matter where they are stationed. 
 
Most professional credentials are conducted online as well. 
 
Through programs like Air Force Credentialing Opportunities Online (AFCOOL), Army Credentialing Assistance (ArmyCA), and the My Career Advancement Account Scholarship Program (MyCAA), LSUS Continuing Education helps service members and their spouses cover certification and credential costs in professions like information technology, healthcare, and professional development.
