According to Victory Media, SU is applauded for going “above and beyond to provide transitioning veterans the best possible experience in higher education.”
久久国产精品久久is one of only 1,600 schools featured on MilitaryFriendly.com. The list was compiled from surveys of over 10,000 U.S. Department of Veteran’s Affairs-approved schools nationwide and more than 4,000 student veterans.
Criteria include supportive campus programs, academic credibility, percent of military students, credit and flexibility for service, tuition assistance, graduation and employment rates, and military spouse policies.
SU also is included on the new Schools Matchmaker tool on GIJobs.com, which is a primary resource for veterans and military students to research schools that offer Post-9/11 G.I. Bill tuition benefits and Military Friendly® status.
Nearly 180 SU students currently use VA educational benefits, said Mancy Wilson, the veterans and military affiliated coordinator in the Registrar’s Office. Through the Yellow Ribbon Program, an optional component of the Post-9/11 G.I. Bill, SU and other universities pay up to half the difference in tuition beyond the amount covered by the federal government.
SU offers a Student Military and Veterans Association, as well as an Army Reserve Officers’ Training Corps (ROTC) program for students interested in entering the military.
