In pursuit of Syracuse University’s continuing commitment to be the best place for veterans, the Office of Veterans and Military Affairs (OVMA) is offering several donor-funded scholarship opportunities and programs for both veterans and military-connected students. Three new scholarships are available this spring. They are the OVMA Undergraduate Student Veteran Scholarship, OVMA Military Family Member Scholarship and the Flanik Family Scholarship for Student Veterans. These scholarships provide students serving on active duty, in the reserve or National Guard, ROTC cadets and military family members with meaningful assistance as they pursue their educational goals.
Applications for each scholarship are open March 11-18. Scholarship recipients will be announced in April.
