2021 Best Colleges for Veterans in the United States
When it comes to choosing a college, veterans have a lot of options - but not all of them are good. College Factual was founded, in part, to help students make the decision as to what would be the best school for them. Our Best Colleges for Veterans ranking is part of that endeavor.
We analyzed 2,104 colleges and universities across the United States to determine which were the best for veterans and active service members. Instead of depending on subjective information, we focus on over 20 objective factors to determine this ranking. These factors include such things as number of GI Bill® recipients at the school, percentage of costs covered by the GI Bill®, and the school's overall quality.
