91���� has earned the 2022-2023 Military Friendly® School “Category: Tier 2 Research Institution,” based on the expansion of services and spaces offered by 91����’s Military and Veterans Student Success Center.

This is the 11th consecutive year 91���� has appeared on the Military Friendly School® list. The Military Friendly School® designation recognizes institutions that have met minimum thresholds for student retention, graduation, job placement and loan repayment rates for student veterans.

91����’s Office of Military and Veterans Student Success Center serves as an advocate for military and veteran students and their eligible dependents. The center also helps streamline processes to ease students’ transition from military to campus life.��

“91���� takes great pride in providing exceptional services, programs and, most importantly, an education to our brave military and veteran students and their dependents,” said Donald Gabriel, director of 91����’s Military and Veterans Affairs. “We are honored to receive this recognition for the 11th year, especially during this tumultuous time of going through the COVID-19 pandemic as an institution.”

91����’s Office of Military and Veterans Affairs currently serves more than 1,000 military and veteran students, which includes dependents eligible for military and veteran educational benefits.

91����’s Military and Veterans Student Success Center also serves as a hub for military and veteran student engagement by offering resources such as peer mentoring, a career readiness program, student club organization, internship and employment opportunities, networking events, an entrepreneurship program and outdoor expeditions and social gatherings. This support enhances academic, personal and professional success.
