Title:Military service members and veterans in higher education: What the new GI Bill may mean for postsecondary institutions
Source:http://www.acenet.edu/Content/NavigationMenu/Pr...
Date:2009
Organization:American Council on Education
Short Description:This report has two purposes: to summarize earlier GI Bills and compare them with the Post-9/11 Veterans Educational Assistance Act (referred to in this report as the new GI Bill for brevity), and to describe the recent participation and experiences in higher education of U.S. military service members and veterans (“military undergraduates”).
Annotation:This report has two purposes: to summarize earlier GI Bills and compare them with the Post-9/11 Veterans Educational Assistance Act (referred to in this report as the new GI Bill for brevity), and to describe the recent participation and experiences in higher education of U.S. military service members and veterans (“military undergraduates”). Drawing on numerous data sources, including the most current national data on undergraduate students, this report will help higher education administrators anticipate the enrollment choices of returning veterans and military personnel and the services needed to accommodate these students once the new GI Bill takes effect.
