When many veterans attend a school, its faculty and staff tend to be more experienced at meeting the needs of former service members. Based on VA records, there are 41 GI Bill® students at Otis College of Art and Design. Since the total enrollment at the school is 1,242, approximately 3.3% of those enrolled are using the GI Bill® to help pay for their education.

This number includes all chapters of the GI Bill®, such as Post-9/11, the Montgomery GI Bill®, the Reserve Education Assistance Program, and Veteran Readiness and Employment.
