What You’ll Find in Our Veterans Report on Grayson College:
A large number of veterans attending a college means the college and faculty are more used to supporting and accommodating the needs of those with prior military experience. VA figures show 173 GI Bill® students at Grayson College. Given that enrollment at the school is 2,890, roughly 6.0% of students are using the GI Bill® to help pay for their education. For perspective, about three to four percent of college students in the U.S. are veterans, according to 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. It leaves out active-duty personnel using Tuition Assistance, meaning the total military presence may be greater. Veterans make up 1.6% of those enrolled at Grayson College, based on College Scorecard data.
