The University of Missouri–St. Louis has continually worked to support its military-connected students, cultivating an environment where they can fully pursue their educational and career goals. In recognition of these efforts, Military Times included UMSL on its “Best for Vets: Colleges” list for the ninth consecutive year. The university was ranked No. 123 nationally, including 16th in the central region. The publication aims to have the largest and most comprehensive rankings of schools for military service members and veterans to help them make decisions about their education. It included 325 institutions in its 2023 rankings.


“We’ve established strong supports for our veteran students throughout academic and student affairs, which enables us to create an environment that honors their service and acknowledges their unique life experiences,” Vice Provost for Student Affairs Jessica Long-Pease said. “Being included again this year is a testament to UMSL’s dedication to serving its military-connected students.”


Jim Craig, associate dean of the College of Arts and Sciences and a retired U.S. Army lieutenant colonel, said he was proud of the ranking but unsurprised by UMSL’s inclusion on the list. “UMSL is successful with its veteran students not because of our great Veterans Center or because of Triton Vets,” he said. “UMSL is successful because it has a culture of inclusion and support that extends to learners of all types – veterans are just one of those types.”
