What’s Covered in Our Report on Great Bay Community College:
A sizable veteran community on campus is often a sign that a school knows how to support students with a military background. Based on VA records, there are 6 GI Bill® students at Great Bay Community College. As the school’s total enrollment is 1,262, around 47.5% of students are using the GI Bill® to help pay for their education. To put that into context, the Student Veterans of America estimates that roughly three to four percent of all U.S. college students are veterans.
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. Veterans make up 1.1% of those enrolled at Great Bay Community College, based on College Scorecard data.
