Each of Asher’s three campus locations were recognized with 2021-22 Military Friendly® awards. Asher College of Sacramento and Asher College Las Vegas were each honored with a Gold award, while Asher College of Dallas received a Bronze award. The Military Friendly® School list is created annually by VIQTORY, a service-disabled, veteran-owned small business (SDVOSB) founded in 2001. VIQTORY is not a part of or endorsed by the U.S. Department of Defense or any government entity, but is a private company with a mission to connect the military community to civilian employment, educational and entrepreneurial opportunities through it’s G.I. Jobs® and Military Friendly® brands.
The Military Friendly® School list is created each year based on extensive research using public data sources for over 8,800 schools nationwide, input from student veterans, and responses to the proprietary, data-driven Military Friendly® Schools survey from participating institutions. The survey questions, methodology, criteria, and weighting, were developed with the assistance of an independent research firm and an advisory council of educators and employers. The survey is administered for free and is open to all post-secondary schools that wish to participate. Criteria for consideration may be found at www.militaryfriendly.com.
To earn the Military Friendly® School designation, institutions are evaluated using both public data sources and responses from the proprietary survey. Methodology, criteria, and weightings are determined by VIQTORY with input from the Military Friendly® Advisory Council of independent leaders in the higher education and military recruitment community. Final ratings are determined by combining the institution’s survey scores with an 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. Asher is proud to have all three campuses meet this threshold of excellence.
Campus leadership at Asher’s campuses were excited to announce the Military Friendly® designations. Mr. David Vice, Founder and President of Asher College, said, “At Asher College, we value our Veteran students, and we are proud to have received this designation. We are truly honored to be able to serve those who have served our great country.” Across each of Asher’s campuses, the Military Friendly® School designation is an honor and a source of pride.
