by our College Data Analytics TeamAs someone with prior military experience, it's a good idea to check how well the school services veterans before signing those admission papers. We've assembled this Hillsborough Community College veteran's report to help you in your research. If you're looking for information related to military tuition assistance such as the GI Bill® or Yellow Ribbon Program, go to the following page: Hillsborough Community College GI Bill® Information
Our Veterans Report on HCC Includes:
Hillsborough Community College was not ranked on the <nil> [Best Schools for Veterans list[(/rankings/veterans). This usually means that not enough data related to veterans was available.
Colleges with a large veteran population are better equipped to support and accommodate those who have had military experience.
The VA reports that there are 2 GI Bill® students at HCC. There are 19,532 students enrolled at HCC. This means that approximately 0.01% use the GI Bill® to help pay for tuition, fees, and other expenses. Putting that into perspective, the Student Veterans of America estimates that about three-four percent of all college students in America are veterans.
This number includes all chapters of the GI Bill®, e.g. Post-9/11, Montgomery GI Bill® and Reserve Education Assistance Program. It also includes Veteran Readiness and Employment. This does not include active-duty military personnel who are attending the college via Tuition Assistance. Therefore, the potential total military population could be larger than this.
