Info in This Veterans Report on Azusa Pacific:
A sizable veteran community on campus is often a sign that a school knows how to support students with a military background. The VA reports that there are 322 GI Bill® students at Azusa Pacific. With a total enrollment of 2,977, approximately 10.8% of students 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 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 military using Tuition Assistance are excluded, so the actual military population may be bigger. Veteran students account for 0.6% of all students at Azusa Pacific, based on College Scorecard data.
