Veterans Alumni Network
Stay connected
The Veterans Alumni Network serves current and former military service members within the NC State campus community. We offer veteran graduates professional development opportunities, networking and Wolfpack camaraderie.
Who we are
NC State has a proud tradition as a military and veteran-friendly campus, and was recently recognized as a 2021-22 Top 10 Tier One Research Institution for outstanding commitment and programs for our nation’s veterans and their families. In partnership with the Office of Military and Veteran Services, the Veterans Alumni Network encourages an ongoing Wolfpack connection for our military and veteran graduates, families and supporters as they pursue future success.

- Assist with the recruitment, retention and graduation of military and veteran students
