Military Friendly Schools: Is Yours Listed?

September 4th, 2009 by Matthew C. Keegan | Filed under College News.

The men and women who serve our country via our Armed Forces are to be honored for their service to our nation. Putting their lives on the line everyday, many have paid the ultimate price and have left family members and loved ones behind.

Serving Our Veterans


The University of Notre Dame was among the schools recently cited as being military friendly.

A number of colleges and universities are considered to be military friendly schools, institutions of higher learning who help veterans make the transition from military service to civilian life through educational opportunities and career guidance.

G.I. Jobs, the web portal designed to help members of the Navy, Air Force, Army, Marines, Coast Guard and National Guard succeed in civilian life, recently named what it considers to be the top schools for veterans. These schools are listed as follows in alphabetical order:

American University

Ball State University
California State University (Fresno, Monterey Bay and Long Beach campuses)
City College of San Francisco
Creighton University School of Nursing
Drury University
Embry Riddle Aeronautical University

G.I. Jobs also launched a new website containing interactive tools and search functionality to help prospective students find a school that suits their needs. Called the G.I. Education Handbook, the site can also be reached at militaryfriendlyschools.com.

I almost went to Northern Arizona. I had a full ride there. But decided that I didn't want to be so far from people I knew.

My current school isn't on the list... but Fresno State is and I went there last year.

Interestingly enough my university Southern Illinois University Carbondale has the most college satellite classes on military bases around the world (or at least thats what the commercial says) and were not on this list. Weird!
