ST. LOUIS – Webster University’s George Herbert Walker School of Business & Technology was listed on the Military Times’ “Best for Vets: Business Schools” survey for the fourth year in a row, it was announced today.
The annual rankings look at academic support, student services, campus culture and several measures of academic success and selectivity to determine a school’s overall score. This year, Webster University was listed in 38th place.
“Webster University has many programs to help those who served in the military complete a college degree,” said retired Navy Captain Sean Coleman, associate vice president for U.S. Military Campuses and Government Programs for Webster University. “This national recognition is a validation of all the hard work from our students, faculty and staff who work daily to make sure we are serving the needs of our veterans.”
Military Times issued its first “Best for Vets: Business Schools” rankings in 2013 and Webster has been on every list since that inaugural year. The full rankings are listed online at MilitaryTimes.com as well as ArmyTimes.com, NavyTimes.com, AirForceTimes.com and MarineCorpsTimes.com.

Webster University has previously been named as a “Best for Vets” University by U.S. News and World Report, G.I. Jobs Magazine and Military Advanced Education Magazine.
