Our Veterans Report on MACC:
A large number of veterans attending a college means the college and faculty are more used to supporting and accommodating the needs of those with prior military experience. The VA reports that there are 88 GI Bill® students at MACC. As the school’s total enrollment is 2,928, about 3.0% of the 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.
All GI Bill® chapters are included here: Post-9/11, Montgomery, Reserve Education Assistance, and Veteran Readiness and Employment. Active-duty service members attending via Tuition Assistance are not counted, so the overall military population could be higher. About 0.7% of those enrolled at MACC, based on College Scorecard data.
Graduation and retention rates can tell you how well a school supports its veteran students through to a degree.
