What You’ll Find in Our Veterans Report on BHCLR:
Colleges with a large veteran population are better equipped to support and accommodate those who have had military experience. Based on VA records, there are 32 GI Bill® students at BHCLR. Since the total enrollment at the school is 512, about 6.2% of those enrolled 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.
The total spans all GI Bill® chapters, including Post-9/11, Montgomery, Reserve Education Assistance, and Veteran Readiness and Employment. It leaves out active-duty personnel using Tuition Assistance, meaning the total military presence may be greater.
