Bryant has a long tradition of supporting veterans as they transition to successful post-military careers. Founded in 1863, near the end of the Civil War, Bryant welcomed veterans into a fast-tracked program, requiring a commitment of only several months so they could quickly begin working and building their new lives.
A strong commitment to veterans
The commitment to veterans remains strong today. Benefits such as career counseling, support services, and dedicated spaces are among the reasons why Bryant is ranked No. 14 Best Colleges for Veterans in the 2022 U.S. News & World Report College Rankings, in addition to the Military Friendly® ranking.
The Military Friendly® Schools list sets the standard for higher education institutions to provide the best opportunities for veterans and their spouses. The designation is based on 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.
The Military Friendly® Schools list is created each year based on extensive research using public data for more than 8,800 schools nationwide and responses to a survey. Over 1,800 schools participated in the 2022-2023 survey, with 665 schools earning designations in Gold, Silver, and Bronze.
