What is OMAC?

The Office for Military-Affiliated Communities (OMAC) assists student US or foreign veterans, their dependents, and ROTC cadets in successfully transitioning into and out of the Stanford community. We do this by connecting students to campus and community resources and supporting and advocating for our student veterans and ROTC cadets. OMAC also engages with Stanford students, staff, and faculty who are interested in learning more about the military-affiliated community. We also advise students who are exploring options to serve in the Armed Forces post-graduation.
