Veteran Student Stats

Military Veterans

FSW is not only an excellent school for military students but a place where they can feel appreciated for their service to their country. We believe and strive to put students first by creating a collaborative environment at the school and within the local community. Through events and professional development training, FSW continues to build a strong military community on and off campus.

Military Spouses

At FSW we have a dedicated Veteran Services Center to accomodate all Veterans, spouses, and dependents on educational benefits and resources. We believe it takes a holistic approach to helping students whether service member or dependent enter academia by creating a military family and community atmosphere.
