What You’ll Find in Our Veterans Report on UDayton:
A sizable veteran community on campus is often a sign that a school knows how to support students with a military background. Per VA data, there are 259 GI Bill® students at UDayton. With a total enrollment of 8,099, approximately 3.2% of students are 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.
This count covers every chapter of the GI Bill® — 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.
