Info in This Veterans Report on American National University:
A sizable veteran community on campus is often a sign that a school knows how to support students with a military background. The VA reports that there are 49 GI Bill® students at American National University. As the school’s total enrollment is 643, nearly 7.6% of the students 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. It excludes active-duty military personnel attending through Tuition Assistance, so the true military population may be larger. Veteran students account for 1.7% of all students at American National University, per U.S. Department of Education data.
