CYPRESS, CA, September 22, 2012 (Press-News.org) Victory Media, the premier media entity for military personnel transitioning into civilian life, named Trident University International to the coveted Military Friendly Schools list. The 2013 Military Friendly Schools list honors the top 15 percent of colleges, universities and trade schools that are doing the most to embrace America's military service members, veterans, and spouses as students and ensure their success on campus.
"Inclusion on the 2013 list of Military Friendly Schools shows Trident University International's commitment to providing a supportive environment for military students," said Sean Collins, Director for G.I. Jobs and Vice President at Victory Media. "As interest in education grows we're thrilled to provide the military community with transparent, world-class resources to assist in their search for schools," said Sean Collins. Complete survey methodology is available at http://www.militaryfriendlyschools.com/Article/methodology-press-kit.
The Military Friendly Schools media and website, found at http://www.militaryfriendlyschools.com, feature the list, interactive tools and search functionality to help military students find the best school to suit their unique needs and preferences. The 1,739 colleges, universities and trade schools on this year's list exhibit leading practices in the recruitment and retention of students with military experience.
"Trident University works with some of the finest leaders in the United States military and has learned how to deliver a world-class quality education in a manner that allows the busy military learner to complete the degree. A flexible pedagogy combined with outstanding student support, and highly engaged doctorally qualified faculty make Trident the place where military leaders sharpen their critical thinking skills and prepare for advancement and transition," said Dr. Steven Gold, Vice President of Institutional Advancement at Trident University.

The survey tabulation process, methodology and weightings that comprise the 2013 list were independently verified by Ernst and Young LLP. Each year schools taking the survey are held to a higher standard than the previous year via improved methodology, criteria and weightings developed with the assistance of an Academic Advisory Board (AAB) consisting of educators from schools across the country. A full list of board members can be found at http://www.militaryfriendlyschools.com/board.
