Florida Atlantic University Continues to Serve and Honor Our Veterans and Military

Florida Atlantic University continues to serve and honor our Veterans and Military. The state of Florida is currently the home of 1.6 million Veterans. With over 30,000 students, we are rapidly growing and serve over 1,700 Veterans, dependents, Active Duty, National Guard, and Reserve members in undergraduate, graduate, and doctoral programs. FAU is also part of a large ROTC Battalion that shapes the next generation of Military Leaders and provides opportunities to continue serving. FAU offers Veteran, Military, and dependent students the support they need to be successful and is committed to the men and women that serve our nation and protect freedom.

Military and Veterans Student Success Center

Our Military and Veterans Student Success Center is a great resource for student support, instructions and general information about getting started at FAU.

Veteran Owls

The mission and purpose of Veteran Owls at Florida Atlantic University is to provide support and assistance to veteran students in their transition from military to college life with a support system and opportunities to participate in veteran-oriented events. The Veteran Owls club promotes a welcoming environment for current military and military veterans by providing a forum in which we may foster camaraderie and friendship by supporting one another through our academic careers, assisting with financial aid and housing resources, and offering educational and career preparation services.
