The pressures you face balancing your service, relationships, work, and school obligations are a serious challenge. It is our goal to provide the support and resources that can help you manage your responsibilities and well-being.
From our dedicated Veteran Center to the Saint Rose Chapter of Student Veterans of America — we’re committed to helping you develop your unique skills, experiences, and perspectives into an education and career you will be proud of.
Take a look at our Saint Rose veteran alumni, who have forged their own paths to not only reach, but surpass the goals they've set, and continue to make us proud. See examples of real career success from the FBI, STEM research, to graphic design.
Only a veteran can understand the issues, challenges, and experiences of other veterans. Which is why we’re proud to have Martin Dinan as our Director of Veteran Enrollment, a combat veteran of the U.S. Army. In addition to helping veterans when they come to Saint Rose as students, our Veteran Enrollment staff helps prospective students through the admissions process, advocating for them when necessary.
Veterans bring a strong sense of teamwork and a strong sense of something bigger than themselves. They learn that there’s just something bigger out there – whether it’s the country, whether it’s pride of having served.”Marty Dinan, COL, USA (Ret),
Director of Veteran Recruitment & Enrollment
Not only does Marty love the veterans who come to Saint Rose as part of their shift into civilian life, he understands them. He’s a veteran of three wars, deployed to the Persian Gulf in 1991 with later deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan. He was promoted to Colonel in the New York Army National Guard in 2013. He spent 19 years as a police officer, all while serving as a commissioned officer in various command and staff positions. He’s served in the active Army, the Reserves and the National Guard.
