The group based its findings using a wide range of data sources, including the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs GI Bill® Comparison Tool, which is aimed at providing service members and veterans with the information they need to make decisions about their education. The GI Comparison Tool is updated annually and pulls data from the Department of Veterans Affairs and Department of Education databases. Rankings and scores are based on performance in four key categories:

  • Military Culture – Based, in part, on the number of GI Bill® Beneficiaries and whether the institution complies with the Principles of Excellence, implements the 8 Keys to Veteran Success, participates in Military Tuition Assistance, and has a student veteran group (ECPI University has very active Student Veterans of America (SVA) chapters at most of its campuses).
  • Online Support – Schools should have a dedicated point of contact for support services for veterans, military service members, and their families, along with a healthy retention rate.
  • Financial Aid – Schools should offer a significant amount of financial aid to active-duty service members, veterans, and military spouses and dependents. Level of participation in the Yellow Ribbon Program also plays a factor. Participants in the Yellow Ribbon Program agree to provide additional benefits to military students beyond what is offered through the Post-9/11 GI Bill®. All colleges on the Top Yellow Ribbon Online Schools list typically offer support to an unlimited number of students as well as offering unlimited contributions per student.
  • Flexibility – This category is evaluated based on the institution’s policies as related to course transfer and prior learning credit, as well as leave and withdrawal. Many colleges award credit for military training and experience, and allow students to earn credit by demonstrating prior learning by taking examinations or putting together an experiential learning portfolio. Because military students can be called to duty at any time, they may be required to postpone their studies. Flexible schools allow these students to withdraw from courses and return later with no financial penalties.
