G.I. Jobs magazine has ranked Kansas State University as one of the most military-friendly schools in the nation for 2010.

This means K-State is in the top 15 percent of all colleges, universities and trade schools. The university actively recruits military students and offers programs to meet their needs.

G.I. Jobs magazine is the second publication recently to recognize K-State for being military-friendly. Military Advanced Education magazine has ranked K-State among the top 60 institutions for 2009.

Some of the programs at K-State aimed at supporting military personnel include The Institute for the Health and Security of Military Families. The school also works with Fort Leavenworth’s Command and General Staff College to administer master’s and doctoral degree programs in operations research, adult and continuing education, security studies and history.

K-State’s office of student financial assistance also has a counselor who specializes in scholarship and financial aid for members of the military. K-State also has an office at Fort Riley to provide initial information and enrollment advice for K-State classes.
