Inside This Veterans Report on North Greenville:
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. According to the VA, there are 67 GI Bill® students at North Greenville. Given that enrollment at the school is 1,719, about 3.9% of those enrolled are using the GI Bill® to help pay for their education. As a benchmark, the Student Veterans of America puts the share of veteran college students nationwide at three to four percent.
All GI Bill® chapters are included here: Post-9/11, Montgomery, Reserve Education Assistance, and Veteran Readiness and Employment. It leaves out active-duty personnel using Tuition Assistance, meaning the total military presence may be greater.
How a school’s veterans persist, transfer, and graduate is a useful signal of how well it serves them.
