Villanova University’s Office of Veterans and Military Service Members is dedicated to assisting veterans, service members and their dependents as they reach their academic personal and professional goals and guiding them from admission to graduation and beyond.

YOUR NEXT STEP
At Villanova, we understand the unique challenges that veterans face and the exceptional experiences that they bring when transitioning to higher education.
We are a proud partner of Service to School’s Vetlink program, which provides free application counseling, peer-to-peer guidance and networking support to all US military service members and veterans. We have also created a step-by-step guide to the services available to you on your Villanova journey.
We are here to answer any question you may have as you navigate this next step.
VETERAN SPOTLIGHT
BASE OF OPERATIONS
In 2020, Villanova established the Prince Family Veterans Resource Center—a dedicated hub for supporting veterans, service members and their dependents as they make their way through their academic journey.
The Center houses the Office of Veterans and Military Service Members and acts as a student common area for studying, networking and veteran-focused programming.

HONORING OUR VETERANS
The University’s relationship with military veterans dates back to World War II. For decades, veterans have been attending Villanova, with the University working to obtain VA benefits for them and their dependents.
The Office of Veterans and Military Service Members collects data and information on all Villanova veterans killed in service. The Interactive Memorial Map serves as a visual a way to honor those who gave their life for our country.
The Office has partnered with Falvey Library to collect the stories of our veterans.
