Inside This Veterans Report on Thomas College:
A sizable veteran community on campus is often a sign that a school knows how to support students with a military background. According to the VA, there are 23 GI Bill® students at Thomas College. As the school’s total enrollment is 688, nearly 3.3% 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.
All GI Bill® chapters are included here: 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.
