The Military Times Best for Vets: Colleges rankings for 2021 have been released and the Veterans and Military Resource Center (VMRC) at 中央社区学院 placed 17th 在中部地区.

From 2014 through 2019, CCC finished atop the annual rankings for two-year colleges. The survey now ranks all school levels in one survey according to region, 类型(公共, 私人非营利, private for-profit) and general education and career and technical categories.

“We are very happy to receive the designation of a Best for Vets school again this year,巴里·霍纳说, director of veteran and military services. “Even with new criteria, CCC stood a great chance to achieve a respectable result. As it turned out, CCC earned a better-than-expected ranking among other larger institutions. The VMRC is just a small part of all the CCC staff and faculty who support veterans and their families.”

CCC established the VMRC in 2011 at the Columbus, Grand Island and Hastings campuses. A fourth VMRC was opened at the 科尔尼中心 in 2017. Each VMRC assists veterans with benefits and academic advising, assistance for disabled vets and mental health counseling. A tuition waiver program provides 100-percent tuition for spouses and children of eligible veterans paid by the college, and the 中央社区学院 全世界最大的网赌网址 provides veteran-specific scholarships.
