by our College Data Analytics TeamChoosing a college as a veteran means weighing how well each school supports those with a military background. So we’ve gathered facts about Quinnipiac University veterans so you can make an informed choice.
For details on military tuition assistance like the GI Bill® or the Yellow Ribbon Program, see: Quinnipiac University GI Bill® Information
Info in This Veterans Report on Quinnipiac:
A large number of veterans attending a college means the college and faculty are more used to supporting and accommodating the needs of those with prior military experience. The VA reports that there are 20 GI Bill® students at Quinnipiac. As the school’s total enrollment is 6,208, nearly 32.2% 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.
Note, this figure includes all chapters of the GI Bill® program (e.g., Post-9/11, Montgomery GI Bill®, Reserve Education Assistance Program, and Veteran Readiness and Employment). It excludes active-duty military personnel attending through Tuition Assistance, so the true military population may be larger.
