Info in This Veterans Report on BYU - I:
Colleges with a large veteran population are better equipped to support and accommodate those who have had military experience. Per VA data, there are 552 GI Bill® students at BYU - I. As the school’s total enrollment is 42,090, roughly 1.3% of the student body is 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. Active-duty service members attending via Tuition Assistance are not counted, so the overall military population could be higher. Veteran students account for 0.4% of the student body at BYU - I, based on College Scorecard data.
