What You’ll Find in Our Veterans Report on Eastern Wyoming 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 17 GI Bill® students at Eastern Wyoming College. Given that enrollment at the school is 489, about 3.5% of the students are 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 excludes active-duty military personnel attending through Tuition Assistance, so the true military population may be larger.
