by our College Data Analytics TeamChoosing a college as a veteran means weighing how well each school supports those with a military background. This report rounds up what we know about Huntington University veterans and their studies to help you in your research.

What You’ll Find in Our Veterans Report on Huntington:
Colleges with a large veteran population are better equipped to support and accommodate those who have had military experience. Per VA data, there are 8 GI Bill® students at Huntington. Because the school enrolls 1,016, roughly 78.7% of students are using the GI Bill® to help pay for their education. As a benchmark, the Student Veterans of America puts the share of veteran college students nationwide at three to four percent.
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 does not include any active-duty military personnel attending via Tuition Assistance, so the total military population is potentially larger.

If you have specialized military training, Huntington may take that into consideration and grant college credit for it. Ask the admissions office how this applies to you. Earning credit for what you already know can save you time and money toward a degree. Check with Huntington about credit for life experience, CLEP and similar exams, or other prior learning beyond military training.
Huntington does not offer Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) programs.
