Info in This Veterans Report on Georgian Court:
Colleges with a large veteran population are better equipped to support and accommodate those who have had military experience. The VA reports that there are 34 GI Bill® students at Georgian Court. With a total enrollment of 1,174, approximately 2.9% of 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.
The total spans all GI Bill® chapters, including 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.
