What You'll Find in Our Veterans Report on National Career Education:
National Career Education was not included in this year's [Best Schools for Veterans ranking[(/rankings/veterans). This usually means that not enough data related to veterans was available.
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 42 GI Bill® students at National Career Education. Since the total enrollment at the school is 471, approximately 8.92% of the students at National Career Education are utilizing the GI Bill® to help pay for their education. For context, let's take this into consideration. According to the Student Veterans of America, approximately three to four per cent of American college students 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. It does not include any active-duty military personnel that are attending this college via Tuition Assistance, so the total military population is potentially larger than this.
Unfortunately, National Career Education does not offer credit for military training.
Our data shows that this school has not received any complaints at the VA.
