Our Veterans Report on Knox:
Colleges with a large veteran population are better equipped to support and accommodate those who have had military experience. Per VA data, there are 12 GI Bill® students at Knox. As the school’s total enrollment is 997, approximately 1.2% of students are using the GI Bill® to help pay for their education. For perspective, about three to four percent of college students in the U.S. are veterans, according to the Student Veterans of America.
The total spans all GI Bill® chapters, including Post-9/11, Montgomery, Reserve Education Assistance, and Veteran Readiness and Employment. It excludes active-duty military personnel attending through Tuition Assistance, so the true military population may be larger.

Unfortunately, Knox does not offer credit for military training. Prior-learning credit can help you graduate sooner, so it pays to ask. Beyond military training, ask Knox whether it awards credit for life or work experience, CLEP exams, or other prior learning.
Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) programs are not available at Knox.
This school has a clean record with no VA complaints.
