Inside This Veterans Report on NCMC:
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. Based on VA records, there are 32 GI Bill® students at NCMC. Given that enrollment at the school is 1,198, approximately 2.7% of the students are using the GI Bill® to help pay for their education. By comparison, the Student Veterans of America reports that three to four percent of college students nationwide are veterans.
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.
How a school’s veterans persist, transfer, and graduate is a useful signal of how well it serves them.
