Relating to veterans.

HB 2828 requires Oregon public colleges and universities to grant 12 academic credits to veterans who served two or more years on active duty with the U.S. Armed Forces. The bill mandates that institutions award four credits each in physical education, cultural studies, and science or applied technology, with no cost to the student. These credits must be transferable between public institutions and count toward degree requirements. The policy directly affects eligible veterans seeking higher education, providing concrete academic credit recognition for their military service.
