NMU once again named military-friendly school

MARQUETTE, MI--   A military media firm has placed Northern Michigan University on its list of military-friendly schools for the fourth time in a row. 

Victory Media says the 2013 list released by G.I. Jobs honors the top 15 percent of colleges, universities, and trade schools that most embrace members of the military, their spouses, and veterans as students to ensure their success.

The list was compiled through research and a survey of more than 12,000 Veterans Administration-approved schools nationwide.

Last May NMU announced its new veterans scholarship guaranteeing in-state tuition for all eligible U.S. military veterans pursuing a college degree.
