  • Veterans with a VA service-connected disability
  • Spouses of veterans with permanent and total service-connected disability
  • Honorably discharged veterans with wartime service.
  • Unmarried widow or widower of a veteran who died as a result of a service-connected disability
  • A veteran who has served in a qualifying campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized, to include the Global War on Terrorism Expeditionary Medal.
Florida International University honors this policy and will comply with Veterans' Preference guidelines when filling staff positions. Any applicant claiming Veterans' Preference will be required to attach a DD214 with each application submitted for verification.
