Start your college career with a streamlined admission process

Thiel offers military personnel and veterans a single point of contact and a simplified admissions process. Members of the military will need to submit:

Network of Advocates

Thiel provides a Network of Advocates who are especially attuned to the needs of our military students. Students can find an advocate in the offices of financial services, admissions, student services, The Learning Commons, academic records and administration. Several faculty and staff members who are also ex-military personnel serve as first-year advisors for our military students.

SERV (Supportive Education for the Returning Veteran) Program

Any present or former member of the military can be a part of our SERV program; designed to meet the needs of veterans who want the combined experience of college, with the camaraderie of working through their college experience in the presence of other military students. It offers Thiel’s Network of Advocates, along with added services such as grouping of vets in first and second year classes, a military student’s lounge and study area, special summer family programs, additional campus orientation, professional campus counselor and other services.

Thiel Veterans Scholarship

Thiel College offers every member of a military service branch a $1,000 annual scholarship in recognition of their service to our country. For more information, contact Thiel College Veteran Liaison Michael Mason at mmason@thiel.edu.
