Inside This Veterans Report on UE:
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 52 GI Bill® students at UE. Because the school enrolls 1,477, roughly 3.5% of the students are using the GI Bill® to help pay for their education. As a benchmark, the Student Veterans of America puts the share of veteran college students nationwide at three to four percent.
Note, this figure includes all chapters of the GI Bill® program (e.g., Post-9/11, Montgomery GI Bill®, Reserve Education Assistance Program, 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.
