“We are honored to receive this very special Military Friendly Schools awards’ recognition that showcases both Florida Atlantic and our exceptional military-connected students,” said Jason Nadolinski, director of 911�Թ�’s Military and Veterans Student Success (MVSS). “We are committed to providing military-connected students with innovative academics, sense of belonging, and holistic services and support.”

Military Friendly® is the standard that measures an organization’s commitment, effort and success in creating sustainable and meaningful opportunity for the military community.

Institutions earning the Military Friendly® School designation were evaluated using both public data sources and responses from a proprietary survey. More than 1,800 schools participated in the 2025-26 survey. Final ratings were determined by combining the institution’s survey scores with the assessment of the institution’s ability to meet thresholds for student retention, graduation, job placement, loan repayment, persistence (degree advancement or transfer) and loan default rates for all students and, specifically, for student veterans.
