Post 9/11 GI Bill
You can use the Post-9/11 GI Bill to pay your educational costs if you are a veteran or military servicemember who served a minimum of 90 combined days on active duty after September 10th, 2001.
Benefits of the Post-9/11 GI Bill
The Post-9/11 GI Bill, also known as Chapter 33 benefits, covers active duty servicemembers of the Armed Forces, or those who were affected by a call or order to active duty from a reserve component (National Guard and Reserve) under certain sections of Title 10.
The Post-9/11 GI Bill offers three major education assistance benefits:
- Up to 100% paid tuition. The maximum tuition benefit you’re eligible to receive depends on your aggregate period of active duty after Sept. 10, 2001. Depending on your length of service, you could have anywhere from 40% to 100% of your tuition covered by the government.
Servicemembers who are entitled to the maximum tuition and fee benefit will receive an amount equal to the highest in-state undergraduate tuition at a public institution, unless benefits under the Yellow Ribbon program apply.
- A monthly housing stipend. If applicable, the monthly housing allowance you’re eligible to receive is equal to the military housing benefit rates of an E-5 with dependents. The housing allowance is based on the location of the school and will be sent directly to you.
- A yearly stipend of up to $1,000. The maximum stipend you’re eligible to receive for your books and supplies is $1,000 a year. The stipend will be paid proportionally for every quarter, semester or term that you’re in school.
