What You’ll Find in Our Veterans Report on Criswell College:
A sizable veteran community on campus is often a sign that a school knows how to support students with a military background. The VA reports that there are 5 GI Bill® students at Criswell College. Given that enrollment at the school is 118, nearly 4.2% of the students are using the GI Bill® to help pay for their education. For context, around three to four percent of American college students are veterans, per the Student Veterans of America.
This count covers every chapter of the GI Bill® — Post-9/11, Montgomery, Reserve Education Assistance, and Veteran Readiness and Employment. Active-duty military using Tuition Assistance are excluded, so the actual military population may be bigger.
