Muhlenberg College has again been recognized as a Military Friendly® School — this year at the Gold level. This is the College’s highest ranking in 10 years of receiving this designation.
Military Friendly® is the military ratings division of Viqtory Media, a veteran-owned company that connects military veterans with previously unknown civilian employment, entrepreneurship and education opportunities. The Military Friendly® Schools survey is the longest-running, most comprehensive review of college and university investments in serving military and veteran students.
“We’re proud of this achievement,” says AJ Lemheney, vice president and executive director of Muhlenberg's Division of Graduate and Continuing Education. “The College is dedicated to creating meaningful connections with veterans and military communities. Our faculty and advising staff strive to facilitate their integration into classroom settings and empower their career advancement. Muhlenberg College aims to cultivate a sense of belonging within the communities they serve and contribute to."
Muhlenberg has also participated in the Yellow Ribbon Program since its inception in 2009.
