What’s Covered in Our Report on Drury University:
A sizable veteran community on campus is often a sign that a school knows how to support students with a military background. According to the VA, there are 70 GI Bill® students at Drury University. Given that enrollment at the school is 1,367, nearly 5.1% of the students 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.
Note, this figure includes all chapters of the GI Bill® program (e.g., Post-9/11, Montgomery GI Bill®, 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. About 1.0% of those enrolled at Drury University, based on College Scorecard data.
