Inside This Veterans Report on North Carolina Central University:
Colleges with a large veteran population are better equipped to support and accommodate those who have had military experience. Based on VA records, there are 638 GI Bill® students at North Carolina Central University. Because the school enrolls 5,400, roughly 11.8% 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.
The total spans all GI Bill® chapters, including 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.
