Marywood University Earns Military Friendly® School Designation

Members News

Marywood University has earned the 2022-2023 Military Friendly® School designation. Institutions earning the Military Friendly® School designation were evaluated using both public data sources and responses from a proprietary survey. More than 1,800 schools participated in the 2022-2023 survey, with 665 earning special awards for going above the standard.

The 2022-2023 Military Friendly® Schools list will be published in the May and October issue of G.I. Jobs magazine and can be found at www.militaryfriendly.com. Methodology, criteria, and weightings were determined by Viqtory with input from the Military Friendly® Advisory Council of independent leaders in the higher education and military recruitment community. 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.

“We are thrilled to have earned this distinction as a Military Friendly® School,” said Sister Mary Persico, IHM, Ed.D., Marywood president. “At the heart of this recognition is our steadfast and ongoing commitment to support the distinctive educational needs of our veteran, current military, and dependent students at Marywood University, so they can maximize both their military experience and their Marywood education when entering the civilian workforce.”
