Veterans Services
Serving Those Who Served
Siena College encourages all veterans to begin or continue their educational goals.
As a Franciscan institution, we are committed to caring for your needs and recognize your proud tradition of service with our armed forces.
Our goal is to work with you on your transition from military to student status, help with access to the Department of Veteran Affairs, and provide information on community resources available for assistance.

National Roll Call Event - November 11, 2011 (click on image for full details)
On Veterans Day, Friday, November 11th, campus and community volunteers at more than 140 colleges and universities from all 50 states and the District of Columbia will read the names of the 6,200-plus casualties of Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF) and Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF), now called Operation New Dawn. We have a simple purpose, to demonstrate to those still serving that we have not forgotten their sacrifices, or those of the fallen.
