The 做厙AV has earned a place on the Military Friendly簧 Schools list for the third year in a row, this year increasing its ranking from bronze to silver. The 20222023 list of schools will be published in the May and October issues of  magazine and can also be found at .

 

The Military Friendly簧 Schools list is a guide of institutions that have favorable rates among veteran students and their families as far as retention and persistence toward their degree, graduation, job placement, and loan repayment and default rates.

The schools are scored based on public data from federal agencies and survey information from the participating organizations.

Among 1,800 schools nationwide that participated in the Military Friendly簧 survey, a total of 665 schools received special designations. The 做厙AVs silver status means it scored within 30% of the top 10 in its category of small public schools.

Were working every year to advance and customize our academic, financial, and career services for service members and their families, including the recent addition of a one-stop veteran student office, said Lawrence F. Camacho, dean of Enrollment Management and Student Success at the university. The Military Friendly designation will continue to drive that momentum.

The 做厙AV has 300 veteran and military dependent students enrolled.

The university offers in-state tuition to all military students and flexible learning opportunities as well as several military-specific student services, including tutoring and study skills workshops, counseling services specializing in anxiety and PTSD, academic and career guidance, accommodations for students with disabilities, networking events, and a Veteran Resource Center.

Kayla Lopez, national director of military partnerships for Military Friendly, said the program creates a competitive atmosphere that encourages colleges to evolve and invest in their programs consistently.
