Student Veterans Association Road Race

Franklin Cummings Tech salutes you for your military service and invites you to find a fast-track to a high-paying career.

Best for Vets 2024 - Colleges graphic Franklin Cummings Tech made the Military Times 2024 Best for Vets: Colleges rankings, the largest and most comprehensive annual list recognizing the top colleges and universities for military service members and veterans. Military Times surveys colleges and universities nationwide to evaluate their veteran-focused programs. These survey responses, along with public data sourced from the Department of Education and Department of Veterans Affairs, undergo a rigorous analysis by the Military Times data team to produce a trusted, unbiased ranking.

There are many reasons why veterans, active military, reservists, and other military-connected students prefer our college. Here are just a few:

  • Our practical learning resembles training in the military. You will feel right at home with our hands-on classes.
  • Our graduation and job placement rates are among the best in the nation for 2-year colleges, and for veterans, our rates are even higher: over 75% graduate and find a job in their field.
  • We have a vibrant community of veterans. You can join our Student Veterans of America (SVA) chapter, which maintains a private center on campus and organizes volunteer and networking events.
  • We offer flexibility to meet your schedule. You can take day or evening classes, and some programs take less than a year to prepare you for immediate entry into the workforce.
  • We’re a Yellow Ribbon college. Everyone with 100% eligibility for the G.I. Bill is on full scholarship. More information is at benefits.va.gov/gibill/yellow_ribbon.asp
  • We provide 1-on-1 support as you navigate available benefits. Contact James Klasen, our Veterans Services Coordinator, at jklasen@franklincummings.edu or 617-588-1344. He will assist you with the financial aid process and provide guidance to you and your family.

We encourage you to visit the VA website to carefully evaluate your options and benefits under the Montgomery GI Bill® and the Post 9/11 GI Bill® and other available programs before making a decision.
