by our College Data Analytics TeamBefore you enroll, it pays to find out how well a school supports students who have served in the military. That’s why we’ve put together this report that gives you the facts about LeTourneau University veterans and their studies to help you in your research.

Info in This Veterans Report on LETU:
Colleges with a large veteran population are better equipped to support and accommodate those who have had military experience. Based on VA records, there are 118 GI Bill® students at LETU. Given that enrollment at the school is 1,510, around 7.8% 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.
The total spans all GI Bill® chapters, including Post-9/11, Montgomery, Reserve Education Assistance, 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.
