The Schlossberg situation, self, support, and strategies transition model served as a foundation to examine each veteran student\u27s personal experience of navigating available community college services to reach their educational goals. Data were collected from interviews with 10 AAMV students. Interview transcripts were coded, and an inductive data analysis was used to develop the study findings and identify emerging themes.

The results also provide information that may assist academic leaders in identifying ways to support AAMV students successfully complete their community college degrees
