What You’ll Find in Our Veterans Report on Frostburg State:
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 159 GI Bill® students at Frostburg State. Given that enrollment at the school is 2,849, roughly 5.6% of 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.
This count covers every chapter of the GI Bill® — Post-9/11, Montgomery, Reserve Education Assistance, and Veteran Readiness and Employment. It does not include any active-duty military personnel attending via Tuition Assistance, so the total military population is potentially larger.
