Veterans and SUNY Empire State College

At SUNY Empire State College we recognize the value of your military
training and experience as prior learning, and help you integrate it into
your academic and career goals. Whether you are continuing your education
or just beginning your college-level study, Empire State College can help
you earn your State University of New York (SUNY) degree. In fact, the
college has been named a "Best for Vets College” by Military Times EDGE,
and one of "America’s Top Military Friendly Colleges" by Military Advanced
Education and G.I. Jobs.

SUNY Empire State College offers a wide range of associate, bachelor’s and
master’s degrees through both online courses or as independent studies with
excellent, experienced, local college faculty. The unique, blended approach
meets the educational needs of veterans with family and work commitments.
The college is regionally accredited by the Middle States Commission on
Higher Education.
