The redshirt junior started his college career at Lackawanna Community College in Scranton, Pennsylvania where played two seasons, totaling 45 tackles, 5.5 tackles for loss, one sack, five pass breakups, and four interceptions.

Mills transferred to the Nittany Lions in 2022 and redshirted that season. In 2023, he appeared in six games and made two tackles. In 2024, Mills recorded 15 tackles, one pass breakup, and one interception in the Fiesta Bowl.
