Our Veterans Report on Rollins:
Colleges with a large veteran population are better equipped to support and accommodate those who have had military experience. Per VA data, there are 123 GI Bill® students at Rollins. With a total enrollment of 2,582, about 4.8% of 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 excludes active-duty military personnel attending through Tuition Assistance, so the true military population may be larger.
