Inside This Veterans Report on Cairn:
Colleges with a large veteran population are better equipped to support and accommodate those who have had military experience. Per VA data, there are 17 GI Bill® students at Cairn. Because the school enrolls 782, nearly 2.2% of the students are using the GI Bill® to help pay for their education. For context, around three to four percent of American college students are veterans, per the Student Veterans of America.
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.
