| Short Description: | Given the expected challenges of first-year implementation, the American Council on Education (ACE) asked the RAND Corporation to study students’ experiences using the Post-9/11 GI Bill during its first year of availability. The study, which was undertaken with the financial support of Lumina Foundation for Education, builds on prior ACE studies of higher education services for current and former service members carried out as part of ACE’s Serving Those Who Serve initiative. |
| Annotation: | Given the expected challenges of first-year implementation, the American Council on Education (ACE) asked the RAND Corporation to study students’ experiences using the Post-9/11 GI Bill during its first year of availability. The study, which was undertaken with the financial support of Lumina Foundation for Education, builds on prior ACE studies of higher education services for current and former service members carried out as part of ACE’s Serving Those Who Serve initiative. This report should be of interest to college and university administrators, particularly
those who work directly with veterans. It also should be of interest to federal and state policy makers concerned with veterans’ education issues, to veteran services
organizations, and to current and former service members and their families. |
