What You’ll Find in Our Veterans Report on Chatham:
Colleges with a large veteran population are better equipped to support and accommodate those who have had military experience. VA figures show 58 GI Bill® students at Chatham. Since the total enrollment at the school is 1,252, nearly 4.6% 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.
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.
