  • What We Offer

Military Veterans

Our Veterans Services teams are staffed by veterans and skilled professionals, so they understand the unique challenges returning veterans face when making the transition from active-duty military to college life. Not only do we provide one-on-one services, but our Veterans Services Center also provides a welcoming environment where veterans can meet and network with other veterans, relax, or study.

Military Spouses

Kennedy-King College is an outstanding choice for military spouses and dependents because it offers flexible, affordable education and comprehensive support. The Veterans Services department is committed to serving, informing, and advising all military-affiliated students—whether or not they use VA benefits. Spouses and dependents receive the same level of personalized guidance, financial aid assistance, and career resources as veterans. With dedicated staff, strong community connections, and programs designed to empower military families, Kennedy-King ensures every student can achieve academic and professional success in a welcoming environment.
