Our Veterans Report on CHC:
A sizable veteran community on campus is often a sign that a school knows how to support students with a military background. According to the VA, there are 165 GI Bill® students at CHC. Since the total enrollment at the school is 5,074, about 3.3% of those enrolled 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.
All GI Bill® chapters are included here: Post-9/11, Montgomery, Reserve Education Assistance, and Veteran Readiness and Employment. Active-duty military using Tuition Assistance are excluded, so the actual military population may be bigger. Veterans make up 1.1% of all students at CHC, based on College Scorecard data.
