Colleges with a large veteran population are better equipped to support and accommodate those who have had military experience. VA figures show 89 GI Bill® students at Carroll Community College. As the school’s total enrollment is 2,006, around 4.4% of students are using the GI Bill® to help pay for their education.

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.
