Welcome to the Universities at Shady Grove (USG)! There are many resources available for veterans at USG, and we've collected them in one place to make them easier to find. You have served us, and so now we want to serve you.
You can learn about admissions, scholarships and other financial aid, counseling, academic advising and—not to be forgotten—student activities. USG has more than 30 student clubs and organizations—including one for veterans.

GroVets – USG’s Student Veterans Group
All students who are veterans of the military are welcome to join the GroVets. GroVets is the student organization instituted to address the number one concern for veterans attending college – fitting in. Veterans come to college with a depth and breadth of experience that most undergraduate students do not have, and as a result, often face a challenge in connecting with other undergrad or grad students. Given the importance of establishing a network of students, colleagues, and friends while in college, the GroVets serves as an organization that enables connections to be made organically with veterans and non-veterans. For more information about the organization and opportunities to get involved, please contact the advisor, Raimonda Nuredini at rnuredin@umd.edu.
