Lake Washington Institute of Technology is one of Washington’s community and technical colleges named as top Military Friendly Schools in the nation according to G.I. Jobs magazine.
The 2013 Military Friendly Schools list released this week honors the top 15 percent of colleges, universities, and trade schools that do the most to ensure the success of military service members, veterans and spouses.

The results were independently audited by national accounting giant Ernst & Young. LWIT was among only 1,739 schools nationwide to make the list
