3 How is a Military Student Defined?
A Military Student may consist of any of the following: Active Duty Service Member Member of the Reserves or National Guard Veteran Military Dependent (Spouse or Child)

5 Veterans vs. Active The Military is complex, but to be effective as a Military Friendly Institution, there are some distinctions everyone must understand. Active: Currently serving in any branch of service, including Reserves and National Guard. Veterans: Anyone who has previously served in any branch of the Military, but has separated from the service.

6 Military Etiquette Military life is defined by formality, tradition, protocol, and respect. Military Etiquette is basically common sense, but here are some helpful tips: Address service members by sir, ma’am, or by their rank. Common courtesy and manners are extremely important. Do not over-promise on something you cannot deliver. Call when you say you will call - punctuality is important! Do not guess! If you do not know the answer, say “I will find out for you” instead of giving the wrong information. If you are not comfortable with military jargon, do not use it. Details are very important.
