Stronger partnerships. Greater impact. One mission. 🇺🇸💛

Today, MVSS had the privilege of hosting the AUSA Sunshine Chapter for a great conversation about collaboration, strengthening our partnership, and finding new ways to support UCF’s military-connected students and the broader military community.

We were also excited to give our AUSA partners a tour of the new Military and Veteran Success Center and share our vision for how this space can serve as a hub for connection, opportunity, and success.

Partnerships like this allow us to do more…connecting military-connected students with resources, mentors, professional networks, and a community that understands their journey.

We’re grateful for the AUSA Sunshine Chapter’s continued support and look forward to what we can accomplish together. The best is yet to come!

🇺🇸 Yesterday, we celebrated the ribbon cutting of UCF’s new Military & Veteran Success Center! This new space is more than a building. It’s a place where military-connected students can find community, build connections, access support, and feel a true sense of belonging throughout their UCF journey.

We are proud to be part of a university that recognizes the unique experiences and contributions of our veterans, active-duty service members, military families, and all military-connected students. Thank you to everyone who joined us for this special milestone, including our students, student leaders from UCF Student Government, Air Force ROTC | Detachment 159 campus partners, community supporters, and UCF leaders whose vision and commitment helped make this center a reality.

Here’s to creating spaces where every Knight feels welcomed, valued, and empowered to succeed. ⚔️🖤💛
