What You’ll Find in Our Veterans Report on ABU:
A sizable veteran community on campus is often a sign that a school knows how to support students with a military background. Based on VA records, there are 14 GI Bill® students at ABU. Given that enrollment at the school is 268, about 5.2% of those enrolled are using the GI Bill® to help pay for their education. As a benchmark, the Student Veterans of America puts the share of veteran college students nationwide at three to four percent.
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. It does not include any active-duty military personnel attending via Tuition Assistance, so the total military population is potentially larger.
