Inside This Veterans Report on Southeastern Oklahoma State University:
Colleges with a large veteran population are better equipped to support and accommodate those who have had military experience. The VA reports that there are 286 GI Bill® students at Southeastern Oklahoma State University. Given that enrollment at the school is 3,031, approximately 9.4% of 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.
The total spans all GI Bill® chapters, including Post-9/11, Montgomery, Reserve Education Assistance, and Veteran Readiness and Employment. Active-duty service members attending via Tuition Assistance are not counted, so the overall military population could be higher.
