Veteran Services

Thank you for your service! The mission of Veteran Services at State College of Florida is to bridge the transition from military life to college life and beyond for our student veterans and dependents. In connection with the mission of SCF, Veteran Service Centers on the Bradenton and Venice campuses work to provide caring, engaging, and quality services through accessible learning environments resulting in student success and community prosperity.
