Why this school is an excellent choice for military membersBSU is proud to support a Veteran’s Assistance Center, staffed by Minnesota Higher Education Veterans Programs members from the Minnesota Department of Veterans Affairs. The center serves veteran students and their dependents, and includes a student lounge (or “day room,” as students have named it), a computer study room, and an office where students can get answers to questions. BSU also has a very active veterans student group for vets and their dependents. Financial Aid and Records provide excellent service to veteran students and their dependents with regard to advice on all enrollment and financial aid matters.
