Syracuse University has once again received national recognition for the support it provides to veterans and military families.
In the 2023 Military Times Best for Vets rankings, Syracuse once again secured a position in the top 10 percent of private non-profit colleges and universities, emphasizing its dedication to providing exceptional educational opportunities for those who have served. Additionally, Syracuse University clinched second place among colleges and universities in the Northeast.
The Best for Vets: Colleges 2023 rankings, an editorially independent news project, meticulously evaluates various factors contributing to the post-service lives of service members, veterans and their families. Following extensive surveys of over 325 colleges and universities across the nation, the results were unveiled by the Military Times on Monday.
“This ranking is an important benchmark for us as it’s a primary source of information for the approximately 200,000 service members who leave military service each year. Syracuse University may be known as the ‘Best Place for Veterans,’ but for those who are less familiar with us, this list may be their first introduction to what opportunities we provide,” says Ron Novack, OVMA’s executive director and a retired U.S. Army Colonel. “Our growing team of dedicated staff, many of them veterans themselves, can look proudly on these results and know they have made a difference in the lives of our veteran alumni.”
