Info in This Veterans Report on Berry:
Colleges with a large veteran population are better equipped to support and accommodate those who have had military experience. Per VA data, there are 76 GI Bill® students at Berry. Given that enrollment at the school is 2,213, nearly 3.4% of the 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.
All GI Bill® chapters are included here: Post-9/11, Montgomery, Reserve Education Assistance, 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.
