Canisius University earned a place in the 2013 “Guide to Military Friendly Colleges & Universities,” released by Military Advanced Education magazine. The guide provides potential students with information about institutions that go out of their way to implement military-friendly policies in support of men and women in uniform.
Canisius was recognized for its flexibility of online learning options, the extent of transfer credits accepted, its on-campus ROTC and participation in Servicemember Opportunity Colleges (SOC), as well as veteran assistance support.
Canisius instituted an Office of Veterans Services to meet the needs of a growing veteran student population, which has more than doubled since 2007. In addition to this recent designation, G.I. Jobs magazine has recognized Canisius on its Military Friendly School list, for the past three years.
