UMT Selected as A "Top School" in Military Advanced Education
& Transition's 2018 Guide to Colleges &
Universities
ARLINGTON, Virginia, November 20, 2017
 The
University of Management and Technology is pleased to announce that it has
received the designation of a Top School in the Military Advanced Education
& Transition (MAE&T)'s 2018 Guide to Colleges & Universities for the
8th consecutive year.
The Guide, which measures best practices in
military and veteran education, will be released in the December and is
available online at www.mae-kmi.com.
The guide presents results of a
questionnaire of the military-supportive policies enacted at more than 600
institutions including private, public, for-profit, not-for-profit, four-year,
and two-year colleges. From community colleges to state universities, online
universities and nationally known centers of higher learning, MAE&T's 2018
Guide to Colleges & Universities arms students with information about
institutions that go out of their way to give back to our men and women in
uniform.
"As the first publication to promote a list evaluating best
practices in military education, MAE&T has been improving the process every
year in order to provide our men and women in uniform information that will help
them make the right choices about college. Thank you for helping us serve those
who serve our country." said Kelly Fodel, Military Advanced Education &
Transition's editor-in-chief.
