Inside This Veterans Report on Tuskegee:
A sizable veteran community on campus is often a sign that a school knows how to support students with a military background. Based on VA records, there are 262 GI Bill® students at Tuskegee. Because the school enrolls 2,367, nearly 11.1% of students are using the GI Bill® to help pay for their education. For context, around three to four percent of American college students are veterans, per the Student Veterans of America.
The total spans all GI Bill® chapters, including Post-9/11, Montgomery, Reserve Education Assistance, and Veteran Readiness and Employment. It does not include any active-duty military personnel attending via Tuition Assistance, so the total military population is potentially larger.
