After I finished my tour of duty, I decided to get my degree.  I came to Baldwin-Wallace College because it has an excellent reputation and offers strong academic preparation.
I learned that B-W is a Yellow Ribbon School where my GI benefits would cover the entire cost of my education. I was planning to attend B-W anyway, but this clearly sealed the deal.
I had courses transfer from both the U.S. Air Force and the American Military University.  B-W did an excellent job reviewing my courses and giving me the maximum credit.
At B-W, the small classes are attractive because they allow me to get personal attention that I need to be successful.  The help and support that I have received from both faculty and staff is above and beyond what I expected.   
 
 

B-W is a Yellow Ribbon College!

Today at B-W, veterans are enrolled in bachelor's and master's degree programs -- studying business, teacher education, chemistry, criminal justice, organizational leadership, computer science, pre-engineering, neuroscience, and much more.  With 87 veterans enrolled in undergraduate and graduate programs, B-W has been recognized for its exceptional programs that serve the educational and transitional needs of veterans returning from active duty as well as those fully immersed in civilian life. As a veteran ready to continue your education, B-W is a great learning community with all the resources of one of America's Best Colleges.  Baldwin-Wallace College has been named a Military Friendly School for 2010 by G.I. Jobs magazine!

Attend classes at our main campus in Berea, or B-W East in Beachwood, Ohio.
