Education As shown in Table 7.2, approximately 90 percent of USCG NPS accessions in FY 2001 were regular high school diploma graduates. The USCG accepted nearly 10 percent GED holders this year, but virtually no applicants without education credentials were accepted for duty in the Coast Guard (one-tenth of one percent). For both the USCG and DoD as a whole, the overall percentage of accessions with high school credentials, either diplomas or GED certificates, was 99 percent, exceeding the comparable civilian group at 79 percent.
