Santa Fe College is indebted to the selfless service provided to our country by our veterans and their families. SF’s Veterans and Military Success Services (VMSS) offers a holistic approach to helping veterans and their families pursue their educational goals. SF has also been named a “Best for Vets” and “Military Friendly” school.
We have a thorough understanding of Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) educational benefits and provide information and referrals.
