Veterans & Military Students

SUNY Sullivan welcomes applications from students who are currently serving or who have served in one of the branches of the United States Armed Forces, and we thank you for your service.

Our faculty and staff look forward to supporting you in your educational goals here at SUNY Sullivan. As an institution that is approved under the Veterans Educational Assistance Act (GI Bill), we want to help you maximize your benefits.

Please reach out to your high school guidance counselor and request that your official transcript be sent to admissions@sunysullivan.edu. Please ensure the transcript is signed and has the correct graduation date.

Military transcripts can also be emailed to admissions@sunysullivan.edu.

If you have attended another college, please request that your official college transcript also be sent to admissions@sunysullivan.edu

In addition to your Immunization record, as of January 2022, all students with an on-campus presence must be fully vaccinated for the COVID-19 virus (At this time, students registered 100% online are exempt from this requirement, unless they are using on-campus services). Failure to provide the required documentation will result in administrative withdrawal from seated classes.

If you have any questions, please email healthservices@sunysullivan.edu.

After your Admission application is submitted and transcripts have been received a member of our Admissions staff will reach out to connect you with a Learning Center advisor who will help you and make your class schedule.

Once you have registered for classes, you must be certified by one of SUNY Sullivan’s certifying officers:

  • Jennifer King, Director of Learning and Student Development Services/Counselor, 845-434-5750 x4335, E212D
  • Klu Padu, Career Placement and Transfer Advisor, 845-434-5750 x4202, E212F

The certification process includes submitting a copy of your Certificate of Eligibility, which you will receive after completing the application process. This only needs to be submitted once. You will also need to submit a copy of your class schedule to one of the certifying officers listed above; please notify a certifying officer every semester when you have officially registered for classes.

If you have earned an Expeditionary Medal and have an honorable discharge, apply for Veterans Tuition Assistance through New York State’s Higher Education Services Corporation (HESC).
