SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., Oct. 1, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Universal Technical Institute (NYSE: UTI), the leading provider of post-secondary education for students seeking careers as professional automotive, diesel, collision repair, motorcycle and marine technicians, announced today that it has been designated a 2015 Military Friendly® School by Victory Media, the premier entity for military personnel transitioning into civilian life. This designation includes Universal Technical Institute, Motorcycle Mechanics Institute and Marine Mechanics Institute (MMI collectively) and NASCAR Technical Institute (NASCAR Tech).
The Military Friendly® Schools designation is awarded to the top 15 percent of colleges, universities and trade schools in the country that are doing the most to embrace military students, and to dedicate resources to ensure their success in the classroom and after graduation. The methodology used for making the Military Friendly® Schools list has changed the student veteran landscape to one of greater transparency and has helped share best practices to support military students across the country.
"The services we offer to support veteran students help to bridge the transition from a military setting to a meaningful civilian life," said John Decoteau, director of military admissions, UTI. "We are proud to be recognized for our commitment to help those who have served our country find opportunities to translate their skills to successful, stable post-military careers."
Now in its sixth year, the 2015 list of Military Friendly® Schools was compiled through extensive research and a survey of more than schools nationwide approved for Post-9/11 GI Bill funding. The school survey, methodology, criteria and weightings are developed with the assistance of an independent Academic Advisory Board comprised of educators from schools across the country.
