by our College Data Analytics TeamChoosing a college as a veteran means weighing how well each school supports those with a military background. This report rounds up what we know about Bradley University veterans so you can make an informed choice.

Info in This Veterans Report on Bradley:
When many veterans attend a school, its faculty and staff tend to be more experienced at meeting the needs of former service members. Per VA data, there are 83 GI Bill® students at Bradley. With a total enrollment of 3,865, roughly 2.1% of the student body is using the GI Bill® to help pay for their education. By comparison, the Student Veterans of America reports that three to four percent of college students nationwide are veterans.
This count covers every chapter of the GI Bill® — 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.
