What’s Covered in Our Report on Scripps:
Colleges with a large veteran population are better equipped to support and accommodate those who have had military experience. According to the VA, there are 10 GI Bill® students at Scripps. As the school’s total enrollment is 1,077, around 92.9% of the student body is using the GI Bill® to help pay for their education. For perspective, about three to four percent of college students in the U.S. are veterans, according to the Student Veterans of America.
This number includes all chapters of the GI Bill®, such as Post-9/11, the Montgomery GI Bill®, the Reserve Education Assistance Program, and Veteran Readiness and Employment. Active-duty military using Tuition Assistance are excluded, so the actual military population may be bigger.
