APU Global Ranked Top 10 Among Military Friendly® Online Schools in U.S. for 2022-2023

APU Global​ (APU Global) announced today that it has once again been named a Top 10 Military Friendly​ ​School for 2022-2023, achieving a Top 10 ranking among online universities and vocational colleges. Institutions earning the Military Friendly® ​School designation were evaluated using both public data sources and responses from a proprietary survey. Over 1,200 schools participated in the 2022-2023 survey with 665 earning designations ranging from Designee, Bronze, Silver, and Gold, to Top 10 Gold.

How the rankings are determined

Criteria include 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.

Why the designation matters to students

“We place a high value on providing excellent student services to our student population,” said Dr. John Reynolds, President of APU Global, “…especially to the military-connected students and families who sacrifice so much to serve our nation so well.”

As a fully online university, APU Global is designed to support working adult students, including active duty service members, spouses, and veterans. “They have some very specific needs that are unique to their situation; and it’s our privilege to work to meet those needs,” says Blason Taon, a U.S. Army veteran serving as APU Global’s Associate Director of Military and Veteran Support Services.
