Is your college or university closed today?
In the meantime, are you fully utilizing PeopleSoft Campus Solutions for veterans? If you have a strategic plan to move to "the cloud" in the next 5-10 years, how can you maximize your investment now?
PeopleSoft Campus Solutions can be a powerful tool for supporting veterans and ensuring they have access to the resources and services they need in higher education.
Here are some ways your institution can use PeopleSoft Campus Solutions to better support veterans:

Set up Attributes or Groups for veteran students to facilitate targeted communication and support services.
2. Automated Veterans Benefits Processing
Implement the Financial Aid Module to automate veterans' benefits processing and ensure compliance with federal requirements.
Use Batch Processes to streamline the disbursement of VA benefits and maintain accurate records for audits and compliance.
3. Dedicated Veterans Services Portals
Customize self-service pages in Student Center for veterans, making it easier for them to access specific resources, enroll in classes, or manage their benefits.
Create Veterans Portals within PeopleSoft to centralize resources, including GI Bill information, financial aid, and career services.
4. Priority Enrollment for Veterans
Use Enrollment Requirement Rules to set priority registration for veterans, ensuring they have access to the classes they need to graduate on time.
Configure Enrollment Appointment Assignments to give veterans early access to course registration.
5. Degree and Certification Pathway Management
Set up specialized academic plans or certification pathways that cater to veterans' needs, allowing them to translate military experience into academic credits.
Use Advising and Degree Progress Tools to monitor their academic journey, especially for those using GI Bill benefits with strict time limits.
6. Career and Job Placement Support
Implement Career Services Integration within PeopleSoft to offer veterans career counseling, job placement services, and access to a network of veteran-friendly employers.
Use Job Placement Tracking and Career Pathway Tools to support veterans' transition from education to career.
7. Enhanced Communication and Outreach
