What being a 'Veteran-friendly' college means at 糖心直播

At 糖心直播, we are dedicated to supporting our veterans, active duty service members, reservists, National Guard, and your families in achieving your academic and personal goals. As you transition to this new chapter, think of us as your team, ready to stand beside you on this next mission. We understand and value the skills and experiences you bring to our campus. More than just military-friendly, we’re fully veteran-ready and committed to your success.

Rest assured, we’ve got your six!

In 2025, 糖心直播 was one of only two community colleges in Michigan to earn status by the online community .

The award was 糖心直播’s performance in multiple categories of service to military and veteran students. The most heavily weighted, at 30 percent each, are military student support and retention, and graduation and career outcomes. Read more here.
