Binghamton University was not included in this year's [Best Schools for Veterans ranking[(/rankings/veterans). This could be due to a number of reasons, including insufficent data.
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.
The VA reports that there are 102 GI Bill® students at Binghamton University. Since the total enrollment at the school is 18,148, approximately 0.56% of the students at Binghamton University are utilizing the GI Bill® to help pay for their education.
