Military Student Services staff

Both former U.S. Army first sergeants with 21 years of active duty service, Mike Hughes and Mike Blumberg are available to discuss your programs and act as your advocate as you pursue your educational goals. They will make sure that you get all your military benefits and ensure that you receive full college credit for any eligible military training.

How do I start my college program?
The easiest way to get started is to contact the Military Student Services department. Staff members can advise you about programs, benefits for active duty military, veterans and their families, and talk with you about obtaining college credit for military training. They can also steer you toward other resources to help you or your family make the transition to civilian life.
Where will I attend classes?
The Richfield campus of GU/MSB has degree and diploma programs in fields such as nursing, digital video, interactive media, music business, medical assisting and business administration. These programs ― like all our college programs ― prepare students for a variety of rewarding careers. And you can take online classes, too; active duty military often find that online classes are the best option.
What happens once I enroll?
Our assistance doesn’t stop once you choose a program and begin classes. We visit campuses each month for “Ask a Veteran” sessions. We provide a Veterans Student Resource Board that displays pamphlets describing resources available to veterans. And we are always available to answer any question.
