Info in This Veterans Report on Hanover:
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 25 GI Bill® students at Hanover. Because the school enrolls 958, approximately 2.6% of the students are using the GI Bill® to help pay for their education. For context, around three to four percent of American college students are veterans, per the Student Veterans of America.
All GI Bill® chapters are included here: 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.
