What’s Covered in Our Report on Central Carolina:
A sizable veteran community on campus is often a sign that a school knows how to support students with a military background. VA figures show 287 GI Bill® students at Central Carolina. With a total enrollment of 2,388, nearly 12.0% of students are using the GI Bill® to help pay for their education. As a benchmark, the Student Veterans of America puts the share of veteran college students nationwide at three to four percent.
Note, this figure includes all chapters of the GI Bill® program (e.g., Post-9/11, Montgomery GI Bill®, Reserve Education Assistance Program, and Veteran Readiness and Employment). Active-duty service members attending via Tuition Assistance are not counted, so the overall military population could be higher.
Graduation and retention rates can tell you how well a school supports its veteran students through to a degree.
| Outcome | Veterans | All Students |
|---|---|---|
| Graduation rate | 28.9% | 25.6% |
| Transfer-out rate | 28.9% | — |
