Inside This Veterans Report on Saint Vincent:
Colleges with a large veteran population are better equipped to support and accommodate those who have had military experience. Based on VA records, there are 38 GI Bill® students at Saint Vincent. As the school’s total enrollment is 1,264, approximately 3.0% of the students are using the GI Bill® to help pay for their education. To put that into context, the Student Veterans of America estimates that roughly three to four percent of all U.S. college students are veterans.
All GI Bill® chapters are included here: Post-9/11, Montgomery, Reserve Education Assistance, and Veteran Readiness and Employment. Active-duty military using Tuition Assistance are excluded, so the actual military population may be bigger.
