Inside This Veterans Report on BMCC:
A sizable veteran community on campus is often a sign that a school knows how to support students with a military background. Per VA data, there are 3 GI Bill® students at BMCC. Because the school enrolls 531, approximately 56.5% of students are using the GI Bill® to help pay for their education. By comparison, the Student Veterans of America reports that three to four percent of college students nationwide are veterans.
This number includes all chapters of the GI Bill®, such as Post-9/11, the Montgomery GI Bill®, the Reserve Education Assistance Program, and Veteran Readiness and Employment. It excludes active-duty military personnel attending through Tuition Assistance, so the true military population may be larger.
