Searching for the right college, university, or other institution of higher learning can be a challenge. There are so many options, programs, and degrees to choose from. How do today’s college applicants find what they need to make the most informed decision about attending school?
Whether you are on active duty, serving in the Guard/Reserve, or are a family member exploring your college options, you need a tool to make your college search more organized and easy to manage.
That’s where the GI Bill School Search Tool comes in. Do you need a GI Bill school locator? Need to find a college that offers credit for your military experience? Do you want to use CLEP to test out of certain classes? You can use the search tool to find schools with these options. This online tool does not require a download; you can search for colleges on your laptop, mobile device, or smartphone.
Use the GI Bill School Locator to Find Your College
Military-affiliated, college-bound individuals have different needs and priorities when looking for a college or university. Most search tools don’t incorporate military assistance programs or GI Bill funding considerations.

What if I Don’t Have GI Bill Benefits? Can I Still Conduct a Search?
Yes! GI Bill benefits are not a prerequisite. Our Search Tool works equally well for service members looking to use their Tuition Assistance benefits. CollegeRecon is built exclusively for the military community, so it works equally well, no matter your status.
In addition to providing a GI Bill school finder, it is important to consider other military and veteran-assistance programs such as:
- Yellow Ribbon Program participant
- Approved funding for military Tuition Assistance
- Credit for CLEP exams
- Credit for DSST exams
- a Student Veterans of America chapter
- VA Principles of Excellence
- 8 Keys to Veteran Success
How Can Students Use the GI Bill School Search?
How should student veterans search for schools that have the veteran support they need? Thankfully, a tool was created to solve this problem. CollegeRecon’s GI Bill College Finder tool has an optional filter for Vet/Military Service to help you find schools with veteran and military support programs.
For a comprehensive GI Bill College List, you may review the entire list of nearly 3,000 schools.

After using the school finder tool, you will have additional questions about the school. That’s why a feature lets you safely and securely contact admissions personnel on the platform. Click the “Request Info” button next to the school of your choice within the site to start the process.
