Inside This Veterans Report on Hamline:
A sizable veteran community on campus is often a sign that a school knows how to support students with a military background. Based on VA records, there are 85 GI Bill® students at Hamline. Since the total enrollment at the school is 1,685, nearly 5.0% 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.
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). It excludes active-duty military personnel attending through Tuition Assistance, so the true military population may be larger.
