What You’ll Find in Our Veterans Report on TUW:
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 98 GI Bill® students at TUW. With a total enrollment of 416, around 23.6% of the student body is using the GI Bill® to help pay for their education. By comparison, the Student Veterans of America reports that three to four percent of college students nationwide are veterans.
The total spans all GI Bill® chapters, including Post-9/11, Montgomery, Reserve Education Assistance, and Veteran Readiness and Employment. It leaves out active-duty personnel using Tuition Assistance, meaning the total military presence may be greater.
