What You’ll Find in Our Veterans Report on HLGU:
Colleges with a large veteran population are better equipped to support and accommodate those who have had military experience. According to the VA, there are 9 GI Bill® students at HLGU. As the school’s total enrollment is 381, around 2.4% of those enrolled 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.
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). Active-duty service members attending via Tuition Assistance are not counted, so the overall military population could be higher.
