by our College Data Analytics TeamChoosing a college as a veteran means weighing how well each school supports those with a military background. We’ve assembled this report on Mars Hill University veterans and their studies to help you in your research.

Info in This Veterans Report on Mars Hill:
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 37 GI Bill® students at Mars Hill. Given that enrollment at the school is 995, approximately 3.7% of the student body is 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.
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.
