Shippensburg University is annually named a Military Friendly® School. This year, the university was named a silver status Military Friendly® School for the 2024-2025 cycle.

The Military Friendly® distinction aims to facilitate positive outcomes for veterans. Ship is proud to align with the mission of setting a standard for veterans, promoting it and providing positive encouragement for US organizations to fund programs that improve the quality of life for veterans.

According to Military Friendly®, those awarded silver status are “a school who scored within 20% of the 10th ranking school in their category. These employers are setting an example with their programs and initiatives. Alexandra Karlheim, Director of First Year Experience, Transfer Student Support and Veteran Verification, stated, “Shippensburg University has had the Military Friendly distinction since 2022. We are grateful to support our Veterans and military-affiliated students who have served our country.”

As a Military Friendly® institution, Ship offers our veteran and military students a wide range of benefits and resources. To learn more, visit Shippensburg University’s Veterans Resources.
