Our Veterans Report on Tulsa Community College:
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 517 GI Bill® students at Tulsa Community College. Since the total enrollment at the school is 11,397, approximately 4.5% of the students 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.
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. Active-duty service members attending via Tuition Assistance are not counted, so the overall military population could be higher. Veterans make up 1.0% of all students at Tulsa Community College, according to U.S. Department of Education figures.
How a school’s veterans persist, transfer, and graduate is a useful signal of how well it serves them.
