In alignment with the college mission, this resource page is designed to serve those who served our country. Rollins College educates students for global citizenship and responsible leadership, empowering graduates to pursue meaningful lives and productive careers. We are committed to the liberal arts ethos and guided by its values and ideals. Our guiding principles are excellence, innovation, and community.

The information provided is by no means comprehensive but provides a good starting point for our student veterans as they navigate the active or post-service college experience.

We are committed to recognizing the service of all veterans, and each year we celebrate the service you have given to our country. We value you and look forward to serving you.
