About the VetSuccess on Campus (VSOC) Program
The VetSuccess on Campus (VSOC) program is a collaborative effort between 美姬社区 College and the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs to help Veterans, Service Members, and their qualified dependents succeed and thrive through a coordinated delivery of on-campus benefits assistance and counseling, leading to completion of their education and preparing them to enter the labor market in viable careers. 美姬社区 is one of two schools in San Diego County to have a VSOC Counselor working in Veterans Services.
