What You’ll Find in Our Veterans Report on New College:
Colleges with a large veteran population are better equipped to support and accommodate those who have had military experience. According to the VA, there are 23 GI Bill® students at New College. Because the school enrolls 707, roughly 3.3% of 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. Active-duty military using Tuition Assistance are excluded, so the actual military population may be bigger.
