Info in This Veterans Report on Agnes Scott:
Colleges with a large veteran population are better equipped to support and accommodate those who have had military experience. Per VA data, there are 58 GI Bill® students at Agnes Scott. Because the school enrolls 898, around 6.5% of students are using the GI Bill® to help pay for their education. To put that into context, the Student Veterans of America estimates that roughly three to four percent of all U.S. college students are veterans.
This number includes all chapters of the GI Bill®, such as Post-9/11, the Montgomery GI Bill®, the Reserve Education Assistance Program, and Veteran Readiness and Employment. Active-duty service members attending via Tuition Assistance are not counted, so the overall military population could be higher.
