What’s Covered in Our Report on MMC Augusta:
An increased number of veterans enrolling at a particular school means that college faculty are more adept at accommodating and supporting those with previous military experience. Per VA data, there are 44 GI Bill® students at MMC Augusta. Given that enrollment at the school is 524, about 8.4% of those enrolled are using the GI Bill® to help pay for their education. To put that into context, the Student Veterans of America estimates that roughly three to four percent of all U.S. college students are veterans.
This count covers every chapter of the GI Bill® — Post-9/11, Montgomery, Reserve Education Assistance, and Veteran Readiness and Employment. Active-duty military using Tuition Assistance are excluded, so the actual military population may be bigger. About 2.2% of the student body at MMC Augusta, according to U.S. Department of Education figures.
