Abstract: This study sought to explore faculty members' perceptions of student-veterans' transition at a two-year college compared to a four-year institution. The guiding framework for this study was provided by Schlossberg's (1984) Theory of Adult Transitions. A simple random sample was used to identify 557 academic faculty members for the study. Overall, there were several significant differences between twoyear and four-year faculty members' perceptions of student-veterans' transitions. [Paper presented at the Annual Meeting of the Northern Rocky Mountain Educational Research Association (NRMERA) (34th, 2016).]
