2013 GUIDE TO Military-Friendly Colleges & Universities Welcome to Military Advanced Education’s 2013 Guide to MilitaryFriendly Colleges & Universities. You will notice that our Guide looks quite a bit different than in years past: This year, the MAE editorial team endeavored to provide more than a list of schools and present you with a way to easily compare the nearly 300 colleges and universities that responded to our questionnaire—while taking into consideration the military-friendly characteristics most relevant to you, the prospective student. Through consultation with a panel of education service officers (ESOs) and transition officers, we created a survey through which we could measure the military-friendly policies enacted at each school. Color-coded dashboards throughout the Guide display the results of our survey. They consist of four gauges representing key categories of consideration to servicemembers, veterans, their spouses, and dependents: Support Services, Flexibility, Financial Assistance and Military Culture. It is important to note that we could only evaluate the information that was provided; each institution was responsible for disclosure. Responses to the survey questions were assigned weights to reflect their relative importance within each of the four categories, and were then totaled to determine their score for that gauge. Each dashboard gauge has a shaded background that shows the maximum potential points for that category. Against that background is a darker bar, which shows how many points that school achieved. Support Services carried the most weight in our questionnaire, followed by Flexibility, Financial Assistance and Military Culture. Military Culture Financial ASSISTANCE FLEXIBILITY SUPPORT SERVICES two-year colleges separately, because we believe that regardless of size or degrees granted, there are efforts that any school can make to better serve those who have served our nation. Another change for this year’s Guide is the inclusion of the results for all the schools that responded to our questionnaire. We believe that having as much data as possible will help prospective students make a well-informed decision about which school best suits their needs. In light of this, we removed the word “Top” from the Guide’s name to reflect that it is ultimately up to the student to decide which school is the best fit for them. A school with low scores may still be a good fit for a particular student based on other traits, as long as the student understands what military-friendly policies to expect there. Although we are not ranking schools in the Guide, we have recognized the schools that exhibited strong military-friendly policies with an MAE 2013 top military-friendly logo to use in their promotional materials. In meetings with your ESO, you should develop a clear picture of what qualities you want in a college or university. Another important early step is a thorough self-assessment of your capabilities, resources, needs and objectives in order to determine the characteristics you should seek in a school. This Guide is a useful tool to help with one part of a larger research process. While this year’s Guide evaluates schools based on the four categories mentioned above, other lists, such as U.S. News and World Report and The Princeton Review, also take academics and world rankings into account. Please refer to the MAE website for links to additional resources and to view our searchable database of this year’s results. Good luck to you in the next stage of your academic journey.

commitment to servicemen and women and their families runs deep at Hawai‘i Pacific University. It’s why we’re known as one of America’s leading “military-friendly” universities, recognized as such by the Council of College and Military Educators, Military Advanced Education magazine and GI Jobs, among others. But it’s more than that. It’s part of our DNA; it’s who we are. It’s why thousands of military students – many of them from the six HPU campuses on Oahu military bases – each year pursue undergraduate and graduate degrees, in the unparalleled natural environment of Hawai‘i. It’s why many thousands more alumni have put their degrees to use in the military and fields ranging from marine science to diplomacy to business administration. See for yourself why when it comes to higher education, HPU is unlike anyplace else.
