For the first time ever, Veterans Benefits GI Bill has put together a Top 25 Military-Friendly Colleges list for the military student community. By providing this list, we hope to further educate the active duty, reserve, veteran students and their family members, whether current or prospective, on the best colleges and universities available.
Veterans Benefit GI Bill chose our Top 25 Military-Friendly Colleges based on: the financial aid options available to service members, such as participation in the Post 9/11 GI Bill’s Yellow Ribbon Program and scholarships; the percentage of overall student recruitment budget allocated to recruiting military students; the school’s proximity to a military base and/or availability of distance learning programs friendly to personnel; the school’s academic accreditations; available military scholarships and tuition assistance; participation in the MyCAA program; and whether the school’s featured in other top military-friendly college lists.
