Inside This Veterans Report on Muskingum:
Colleges with a large veteran population are better equipped to support and accommodate those who have had military experience. VA figures show 53 GI Bill® students at Muskingum. Because the school enrolls 1,407, roughly 3.8% of the student body is using the GI Bill® to help pay for their education. By comparison, the Student Veterans of America reports that three to four percent of college students nationwide are veterans.
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.
