What You’ll Find in Our Veterans Report on NSC:
When many veterans attend a school, its faculty and staff tend to be more experienced at meeting the needs of former service members. VA figures show 219 GI Bill® students at NSC. As the school’s total enrollment is 3,791, around 5.8% of the student body is 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 number includes all chapters of the GI Bill®, such as Post-9/11, the Montgomery GI Bill®, the Reserve Education Assistance Program, and Veteran Readiness and Employment. It excludes active-duty military personnel attending through Tuition Assistance, so the true military population may be larger. About 1.0% of those enrolled at NSC, according to U.S. Department of Education figures.

Prior-learning credit can help you graduate sooner, so it pays to ask. Check with NSC about credit for life experience, CLEP and similar exams, or other prior learning beyond military training.
