Wayne Community College has been named a “Military Friendly® School” for the sixth time.
The Military Friendly® Schools list honors the colleges, universities and trade schools that are doing the most to embrace military students, and to dedicate resources to ensure their success in the classroom and after graduation. The list of Military Friendly® Schools is provided to service members and their families to help them select the best school for the education and training needed to pursue a civilian career.
The designation shows that a school exhibits leading practices in the recruitment and retention of students with military experience.
Nationwide, 1,273 colleges, universities and trade schools made the 2017 list. Wayne Community College is one of 24 North Carolina community colleges and 61 institutions of higher education in the state to receive the designation. The full list can be found at www.militaryfriendly.com and will be printed in the annual Guide to Military Friendly® Schools.
“Wayne Community College will continue to focus on our service to veterans as a top college priority,” said Dr. Thomas A. Walker Jr., the college’s president. “We consider ourselves an important component in one of the nation’s most military friendly communities.”
According to Daniel Nichols, a Navy Reserve veteran and chief product officer at Victory Media which publishes the Military Friendly® list, “Our ability to apply a clear, consistent standard to the majority of colleges gives veterans a comprehensive view of which schools are striving to provide the best opportunities and conditions for our nation’s student veterans. Military Friendly® helps military families make the best use of the Post-9/11 GI Bill and other federal benefits while allowing us to further our goal of assisting them in finding success in their chosen career fields.”
The Military Friendly® Schools list is created each year based on research using public data sources for more than 8,800 schools nationwide, input from student veterans, and responses to the proprietary, data-driven Military Friendly® Schools survey from participating institutions. The survey questions, methodology, criteria and weightings were developed by Victory Media with the assistance of an independent research firm and an advisory council of educators and employers. The survey is administered for free and is open to all post-secondary schools that wish to participate.
More than 1,600 schools participated in the 2017 survey. Final ratings were determined by combining the institution’s survey scores with the assessment of the institution’s ability to meet thresholds for student retention, graduation, job placement, loan repayment, persistence (degree advancement or transfer) and loan default rates for all students and, specifically, for student veterans.
