What You’ll Find in Our Veterans Report on Wesleyan College:
An increased number of veterans enrolling at a particular school means that college faculty are more adept at accommodating and supporting those with previous military experience. Per VA data, there are 31 GI Bill® students at Wesleyan College. Given that enrollment at the school is 466, approximately 6.7% of the students are using the GI Bill® to help pay for their education.
