What You’ll Find in Our Veterans Report on PMI Denver:
A sizable veteran community on campus is often a sign that a school knows how to support students with a military background. According to the VA, there are 75 GI Bill® students at PMI Denver. With a total enrollment of 764, nearly 9.8% of the student body is using the GI Bill® to help pay for their education. As a benchmark, the Student Veterans of America puts the share of veteran college students nationwide at three to four percent.
This count covers every chapter of the GI Bill® — Post-9/11, Montgomery, Reserve Education Assistance, and Veteran Readiness and Employment. Active-duty service members attending via Tuition Assistance are not counted, so the overall military population could be higher. Veteran students account for 0.9% of all students at PMI Denver, per U.S. Department of Education data.
How a school’s veterans persist, transfer, and graduate is a useful signal of how well it serves them.
