Our Veterans Report on UNC Greensboro:
An increased number of veterans enrolling at a particular school means that college faculty are more adept at accommodating and supporting those with previous military experience. VA figures show 1,028 GI Bill® students at UNC Greensboro. Because the school enrolls 13,848, around 7.4% of the students are using the GI Bill® to help pay for their education. For context, around three to four percent of American college students are veterans, per the Student Veterans of America.
This count covers every chapter of the GI Bill® — 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. Veteran students account for 0.2% of the student body at UNC Greensboro, based on College Scorecard data.
