KANSAS CITY, MO--(Marketwired - Jul 24, 2013) - Grantham University, an accredited online university serving working adults, was ranked number 9 in the top 50 most popular colleges and universities serving military students by The Military Times. Long recognized for its commitment and service to military students, earlier this year the publication also named Grantham University to its list of top universities for veterans.
"It is a great honor to serve our military and veteran students," says Grantham University's Vice President for Strategic Initiatives and External Relations, Dr. Jeffrey Cropsey. "As our service members have committed to their country, we at Grantham commit to providing an outstanding educational experience and top-notch support for our students. They deserve nothing less than the best."
These efforts have been recognized by Grantham students, Dr. Cropsey notes, "Our continued success in meeting the educational needs of service members is evident in the referrals we receive from students and alumni."
According to a recent student engagement survey, nine out of ten Grantham students surveyed indicated that if they could start their higher education over again, they would still choose Grantham. The same percentage also rated Grantham's academic advising services as excellent, and 94% of the students rated their educational experience as good or excellent.
Grantham University is one of the few schools able to serve America's finest throughout the world because its online degree programs combine flexible log-in times with a classroom environment which is accessible from anywhere in the world with available internet access. The University offers several military scholarship programs, an interactive online learning environment and a solid student support structure to ensure that all service members have the opportunity to earn an undergraduate or graduate degree.
