Info in This Veterans Report on CCCTI:
When many veterans attend a school, its faculty and staff tend to be more experienced at meeting the needs of former service members. The VA reports that there are 98 GI Bill® students at CCCTI. As the school’s total enrollment is 2,331, around 4.2% of the students are using the GI Bill® to help pay for their education. For context, around three to four percent of American college students are veterans, per the Student Veterans of America.
This count covers every chapter of the GI Bill® — Post-9/11, Montgomery, Reserve Education Assistance, and Veteran Readiness and Employment. It does not include any active-duty military personnel attending via Tuition Assistance, so the total military population is potentially larger.
How a school’s veterans persist, transfer, and graduate is a useful signal of how well it serves them.
| Outcome | Veterans | All Students |
|---|---|---|
| Graduation rate | 28.6% | 40.0% |
| Transfer-out rate | 28.6% | — |
Rates are reported via the VA’s GI Bill® Comparison Tool.
