What’s Covered in Our Report on Maryville College:
A sizable veteran community on campus is often a sign that a school knows how to support students with a military background. According to the VA, there are 62 GI Bill® students at Maryville College. Given that enrollment at the school is 1,028, about 6.0% of those enrolled 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 excludes active-duty military personnel attending through Tuition Assistance, so the true military population may be larger.
