by our College Data Analytics TeamHow much of the cost at KGI will the G.I. Bill® cover? Coverage is not unlimited and varies school to school, so the fine print is worth checking.
Through the Yellow Ribbon Program, Keck Graduate Institute and the VA share the cost of tuition above the Post-9/11 cap. About 5 Yellow Ribbon recipients were reported at this school.
Seat counts and matching amounts change by program each year; verify the details with the schools military and veteran services team.
The Post-9/11 GI Bill® also covers housing through a Monthly Housing Allowance (MHA). Here is how that benefit compares to the estimated cost of living at KGI.
| Item | Amount |
|---|---|
| Post-9/11 monthly housing allowance (MHA) | $3,864/mo |
| Housing benefit (academic year, ~8 months) | $30,912 |
The MHA helps cover the cost of living while enrolled. Your actual MHA depends on your rate of pursuit and the school’s location.
Beyond the coverage math above, this is how much veteran education-benefit money actually flows to KGI.
Approximately 9 veterans received Post-9/11 GI Bill® tuition payments of $171,808.
| Benefit | Recipients | Total disbursed | Average / recipient |
|---|---|---|---|
| GI Bill® (all students) | 9 | $191,124 | $21,236 |
| GI Bill® — graduate | 9 | $191,124 | — |
These are federal education benefits — the Post-9/11 GI Bill® for veterans and DoD Tuition Assistance for active-duty members.
