Veteran Affairs

Mission Statement: The mission of Veteran Student Services is to enhance the experience of student military service members, veterans, and dependents at SUNY Delhi by providing them with the necessary guidance, mentoring, and student-centered services that will assist with their transition and ensure their academic and personal success within the college community.

SUNY Delhi honors the service that every student veteran has given to this great country and is committed to providing an environment that is conducive to the needs of our veterans. At SUNY Delhi, students are the most important members of the SUNY Delhi community and we are committed to student success. Veteran Student Services is firm in its mission to provide quality services to student veterans that assist with their transition and ensure their academic and personal success.

The Johnny Isakson and David P. Roe, M.D. Veterans Health Care and Benefits Improvement Act of 2020 requires educational institutions to make certain disclosures to students using federal military and/or VA educational benefits. To view and print a copy of an estimated personalized cost of attendance, you can visit the SUNY Net Price Cost Calculator and select "Delhi" from the dropdown. Additional financial information can be found at the NCES College Navigator site.

The SUNY Financial Aid Plan (FAP) will provide a more in-depth analysis and accurate picture of student cost once the student has filed their FAFSA, completed a SUNY application, and has been accepted by a campus.
