SANFORD, N.C. – 91��ѡ has announced that it has earned the 2025-2026 Military Friendly® School designation. 91��ѡ was named Military Friendly® School – Silver and Military Spouse Friendly® School.

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 2025-2026 survey with 830 earning special awards for going above the standard.

The 2025-2026 Military Friendly® Schools list will be published in the May and October issue of G.I. Jobs magazine and found on the website.  

Methodology, criteria, and weightings were determined by Viqtory with input from the Military Friendly® Advisory Council of independent leaders in the higher education and military recruitment community. 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.

"Central Carolina recognizes the sacrifices our military families make in service to our country and we are committed to providing them our best possible service in return,” said Dr. Lisa M. Chapman, 91��ѡ President. “We value what their success means to them, to the college, and to our communities.”

“A community college is a great bridge between military life and civilian life. I feel it is important that we support and encourage all of our military affiliated students during their time here at 91��ѡ. This includes active duty, veterans, spouses and their children,” said Angie Estes, 91��ѡ Veterans Affairs Coordinator. “It is a privilege to work with these students every day. Getting to help guide them through their journey is the most rewarding part of my job. Receiving this distinction shows we are doing things right. It also lets those looking to find a school to attend that 91��ѡ is definitely a place they should explore.”

“Military Friendly® is committed to transparency and providing consistent data-driven standards in our designation process. Our standards provide a benchmark that promotes positive outcomes and support services that better the educational landscape and provide opportunity for the Military Community. This creates a competitive atmosphere that encourages Institutions to evolve and invest in their programs consistently. Schools who achieve awards designation show true commitment in their efforts, exceeding the standard.” -- Kayla Lopez, Vice President, Military Friendly®.
