Inside This Veterans Report on Amridge:
Colleges with a large veteran population are better equipped to support and accommodate those who have had military experience. VA figures show 69 GI Bill® students at Amridge. As the school’s total enrollment is 226, about 30.5% of those enrolled are using the GI Bill® to help pay for their education. For perspective, about three to four percent of college students in the U.S. are veterans, according to the Student Veterans of America.
This count covers every chapter of the GI Bill® — Post-9/11, Montgomery, Reserve Education Assistance, and Veteran Readiness and Employment. Active-duty service members attending via Tuition Assistance are not counted, so the overall military population could be higher. Veterans make up 4.1% of those enrolled at Amridge, per U.S. Department of Education data.
