GW and other private universities could soon see a surge in veteran enrollment thanks to a new benefit bill set to fully go into effect this summer.
The Forever G.I. Bill, or Harry W. Colmery Veterans Educational Assistance Act, offers new benefits like expanded tuition support and eliminates the time limit for veterans to use educational aid. Student veterans at GW said the new bill will make a college education more affordable, resulting in more veterans attending private universities.
