Bridging the gap for military veterans in transition.
The transition from military service to civilian life can bring about many unforeseen obstacles, including a financial gap between GI benefits and the cost of higher education. Established in 2021 by the Saint Leo University Alumni Association, the Student Veteran Endowed Scholarship was created to help bridge the gap by supporting active duty, reserves, and military veterans earning their degrees at Saint Leo. Saint Leo University is committed to providing opportunities and resources for veteran students to succeed.
Supporting members of the U.S. Armed Forces with financial need.
Donations to the Student Veteran Endowed Scholarship fund will support full-time Saint Leo University undergraduate students who are active duty, reserve, or veterans of the United States Armed Forces and who demonstrate financial need.

My education is my first priority, and I take learning seriously, so I am very thankful that this scholarship has helped me complete my education. - Tony Barnes '23, U.S. Navy
