Example state-page placement
Purchase a placement
Feature any listed school
Select the school and every state where it should appear. The highest-value state anchors the order; directly neighboring states receive regional add-on pricing. Annual prices appear in the order summary as states are selected.
The advertisement uses the verified information and official website already in our directory.
Advertising and editorial content remain separate
Payment purchases a clearly labeled placement only. It does not change a school's listing, editorial content, verdict, organic order, or inclusion in the directory.
Can anyone feature a school?
Yes. Any person or organization may feature any school with a verified official website in our directory.
Can I select more than one state?
Yes. The highest-priced state is the full-price anchor. Up to six states that directly border the anchor receive their lower regional add-on rates. Other additional states receive 10% off their standalone rates.
What happens when I request an invoice?
Stripe immediately emails a finance-ready annual recurring invoice with a secure payment page and downloadable PDF. MilitarySchools.com also sends a reply-enabled order summary with the PDF attached. The placement goes live during the seven-day payment window. If payment is not received by the deadline, the placement is removed, the invoice is canceled, and another sponsor may reserve the inventory.
Why do states have different prices?
Pricing reflects the audience, demand, and competitive value of each exclusive state placement. Pageview forecasts are based on the latest 90 days of actual MilitarySchools.com traffic data—not guaranteed placement impressions, clicks, or school-site visits. Sponsorship prices are fixed by the current price book and do not fluctuate with daily traffic changes.
How do sponsors see performance?
The invoice summary and post-payment onboarding email provide a private reporting link—there is no separate account or password to remember. The report shows state pageviews, actual placement views, official-site clicks, click rate, and a state-by-state breakdown. Keep the link with your purchasing records or contact us to have it resent.
Do you offer nationwide sponsorships?
Yes, by custom quote rather than through self-service checkout.
Nationwide Coverage is non-exclusive visibility in every state without a dedicated sponsor. It does not reserve states, and its coverage changes as exclusive state sponsorships begin or end.
Nationwide Exclusivity reserves all currently available state inventory for one school for the agreed term. Availability and pricing depend on the state placements already reserved.
Email schools@militaryschools.com to discuss current inventory and recruiting goals.
How do renewal and founding pricing work?
Placements renew annually. The founding price is guaranteed for the first three annual sponsorship terms while coverage remains continuously active. After that, any annual increase is limited to approximately 7.5% with advance notice. Invoice customers may request manual renewal terms.
What happens when a state is already reserved?
Only one school may hold a state at a time. Reserved states show the current term's end date and a waitlist link so another school can be contacted if the placement becomes available.
Where does the advertisement link?
The photograph, school name, and call-to-action link directly to the official website recorded in our verified school listing.
Are traffic or enrollments guaranteed?
No. Historical traffic and click rates describe past performance; future traffic, referrals, and enrollments vary.
