Abstract	This exploratory case study focuses on a returning Hispanic combat veteran and his perceptions and experiences regarding transition from a military setting to a higher education setting. Focus is placed on a cohort-based transition educational program of studies designed to provide coping skills that foster resiliency so as to minimize stigmatization and traditional psychological interventions while increasing the likelihood of retention and graduation. While this study looks at a single individual attending the program, his perceptions advise to the efficacy of such an endeavor for returning veterans. (As Provided).
