Our Veterans Report on PCC:
Colleges with a large veteran population are better equipped to support and accommodate those who have had military experience. Per VA data, there are 10 GI Bill® students at PCC. As the school’s total enrollment is 386, nearly 2.6% of those enrolled 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 military using Tuition Assistance are excluded, so the actual military population may be bigger.

Unfortunately, PCC does not offer credit for military training. Earning credit for what you already know can save you time and money toward a degree. Check with PCC about credit for life experience, CLEP and similar exams, or other prior learning beyond military training.

No complaints about this school have been filed with the VA.
