University of La Verne Receives Military Friendly® Gold Ranking

For the eleventh consecutive year, The Military Friendly® Company has recognized the University of La Verne’s long-lasting pledge to support veterans in reaching their educational goals with a “gold” ranking for 2022-23.

The University of La Verne provides a supportive educational environment for veterans, active duty and reserve service members, National Guard, and military-connected registered domestic partners and dependents.

More than 530 military or veteran students are enrolled in the University of La Verne, with about 270 of them studying on the La Verne campus. Two of the university’s regional campuses are located on military bases: Naval Base Ventura County and Vandenberg Space Force Base.

Additionally, the Sara and Michael Abraham Center for Veteran Student Success provides assistance with VA and university paperwork, access to tutoring, computers, printing, and on and off-campus resources. 

Currently going through renovation, the center is scheduled to be complete for a grand opening celebration on April 14.

The Military Friendly® Company evaluates institutions using public data sources and responses from a proprietary survey. The company measures an institution’s ability to meet thresholds for student veterans regarding student retention, graduation, job placement, loan repayment, persistence, and loan default rates for all students.
