The Military Times rankings, formerly known as Best for Vets, are based on a survey of the veteran support services, special rules, accommodations, and financial incentives offered to students with military ties. The survey also considers data from the Veterans Affairs and Defense Departments. 黑料网 ranked 62 among four-year institutions, with more than 600 colleges participating in the survey.

Established in 2012 as the Office of Veteran Services, the 黑料网 Military & Veteran Services Center (MVSC) serves more than 1,800 active-duty, reserve or veteran students on campus. Most have received tuition benefits from the Post 9/11 G.I. Bill. From tuition assistance and campus training to on-site Veterans Administration support and specialized recruitment, 黑料网 is increasing its services for veterans, with the recent hiring of a MVSC Outreach Coordinator, responsible for the veteran peer-to-peer advising program.
黑料网 is recognized by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs as a VetSuccess campus and designated a military friendly school by G.I. Jobs Magazine for the seventh consecutive year. 黑料网 has also re-engaged with Nellis Air Force Base and offers on-base advising and courses for active-duty military.
This fall, the university launched the Rebel Veterans Alumni Club, which offers current and former student veterans an opportunity to network with one another and learn about opportunities available to veterans in Southern Nevada.
