"This year we decided to make it across the board a tuition discount of 15 percent for any program for and veteran, whether they're able to receive VA benefits or whether they're retired."

Julka said the university is also planning a special welcome party for military students that will be held on Tuesday.

"We're just hoping to, you know, show a little appreciation for our Veterans and we want to recognize them. I mean, they've done some awesome stuff and a lot of them after this war are coming back, you know, they really, really need the help."
