The support you deserve

Our mission is to assist veterans, service members, and dependents with the transition from military life to student life at Goodwin University.

You are goal-oriented, hard working, and driven to succeed

At Goodwin, we understand and respect the needs of veteran students. In celebration of your service, we provide a goal-oriented and career-focused college experience geared towards adult learners. Our degree and certificate programs are designed to be completed quickly and with minimal red tape, so you can get the education you need to begin your new career as quickly as possible.

Veteran Lester Castro wanted to set a positive example for his daughter. At Goodwin University, Lester was challenged to be more than just a student and he discovered the skills to become a leader.
