WILMINGTON, NC (WWAY) — Cape Fear Community College has received the 2026-2027 Military Friendly® School designations as a Top Ten Large Community College and a Military Spouse Friendly School.
This recognition comes as CFCC continues to expand its support for military-connected students. In 2025 alone, Veterans Services assisted 1,093 veterans and military-affiliated students, marking a 22% increase over the previous year. The college also recently opened a dedicated Veterans Support Center at its Surf City location, providing expanded resources and services closer to home for students in Pender County. Additionally, beginning in 2025, veterans became eligible to use VA education benefits for CDL Truck Driving and EMT certificate programs, further increasing access to high-demand career pathways.
“We are honored to be recognized as both a Military Friendly School and a Military Spouse Friendly School,” said Jim Morton, CFCC President. “Supporting those who have served, and their families, is central to our mission and we are proud to provide the education and resources they need to succeed.”…
