by our College Data Analytics TeamHow much of the cost at ANHO will the G.I. Bill® cover? GI Bill® benefits are limited and differ by school, so the specifics matter.
The table below compares the guaranteed Post-9/11 tuition benefit to the cost of attending ANHO. See the living-expense and book sections below for those benefits.
| Item | Amount |
|---|---|
| Veteran tuition & fees | $43,328 |
| Guaranteed Post-9/11 tuition benefit | $20,235 |
| Tuition out of pocket | $23,093 |
Because the Post-9/11 tuition benefit is capped near $20,235 per year, tuition above the cap is the veterans responsibility at ANHO.
Academy for Nursing and Health Occupations is a Yellow Ribbon school: the institution and the VA jointly fund tuition that exceeds the GI Bill® cap.
Seat counts and matching amounts change by program each year; verify the details with the schools military and veteran services team.
On top of tuition, the Post-9/11 GI Bill® provides a Monthly Housing Allowance (MHA) for the months you are in school. The table compares the housing benefit to estimated living expenses at ANHO.
| Item | Amount |
|---|---|
| Post-9/11 monthly housing allowance (MHA) | $3,474/mo |
| Housing benefit (academic year, ~8 months) | $27,792 |
The Monthly Housing Allowance is paid for the months you are enrolled and is meant to offset off-campus living costs. MHA amounts reflect the local housing rate for the school’s area.
With a Post-9/11 book stipend of up to $1,000 per year, the estimated $3,961 in supply costs at ANHO, leaving about $2,961 out of pocket.
