Our Veterans Report on Astrodome Career Centers:
When many veterans attend a school, its faculty and staff tend to be more experienced at meeting the needs of former service members. According to the VA, there are 20 GI Bill® students at Astrodome Career Centers. Because the school enrolls 529, approximately 3.8% of the students are using the GI Bill® to help pay for their education. For perspective, about three to four percent of college students in the U.S. are veterans, according to the Student Veterans of America.
The total spans all GI Bill® chapters, including Post-9/11, Montgomery, Reserve Education Assistance, and Veteran Readiness and Employment. It excludes active-duty military personnel attending through Tuition Assistance, so the true military population may be larger. Veteran students account for 0.8% of those enrolled at Astrodome Career Centers, per U.S. Department of Education data.
