Our Veterans Report on Southeast:
An increased number of veterans enrolling at a particular school means that college faculty are more adept at accommodating and supporting those with previous military experience. According to the VA, there are 31 GI Bill® students at Southeast. Because the school enrolls 1,680, around 1.8% of those enrolled 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. Active-duty military using Tuition Assistance are excluded, so the actual military population may be bigger.
How a school’s veterans persist, transfer, and graduate is a useful signal of how well it serves them.
