About

Empowering Those Who Served: The Veteran Experience at SCU

This year, Santa Clara University is home to over 60 student veterans—a record-breaking milestone. We are committed to being more than just a campus; we are a support system.

Recent Milestones:

  • A Dedicated Space: Opened the Veterans Lounge in St. Joseph’s Hall (Fall 2024).
  • Expanded Access: Increased Yellow Ribbon funding for both undergraduate and graduate levels.
  • Vibrant Community: Active SVA Chapter and deep partnerships with SCU ROTC and Alumni.

The Challenge: Funding limitations often make private education a hurdle for veterans. Your support of the Ahmanson Veteran Scholarship Initiative ensures that financial barriers don't stand in the way of a veteran’s success.

Your gift today directly supports:

  • Scholarship aid to close the gap left by the GI Bill
  • Enhanced resources for the Veterans Lounge
  • Career and community-building programs
