Our Veterans Report on Plymouth State:
Colleges with a large veteran population are better equipped to support and accommodate those who have had military experience. Per VA data, there are 104 GI Bill® students at Plymouth State. Since the total enrollment at the school is 3,298, nearly 3.2% of the students are 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.
The total spans all GI Bill® chapters, including Post-9/11, Montgomery, Reserve Education Assistance, and Veteran Readiness and Employment. It does not include any active-duty military personnel attending via Tuition Assistance, so the total military population is potentially larger.
