Will you go to Alaska Bible College for free thanks to the G.I. Bill®? Coverage is not unlimited and varies school to school, so the fine print is worth checking.
The table below compares the guaranteed Post-9/11 tuition benefit to the cost of attending Alaska Bible College. Housing and book benefits are covered separately below.
| Item | Amount |
|---|---|
| Veteran tuition & fees | $10,930 |
| Guaranteed Post-9/11 tuition benefit | $10,930 |
| Tuition out of pocket | $0 |
Because tuition is at or below the annual Post-9/11 benefit, the GI Bill® covers it in full at Alaska Bible College.
Federal data does not indicate that Alaska Bible College currently participates in the Yellow Ribbon Program. Check directly with the school, since participation can change year to year.
For active-duty students, Tuition Assistance covers up to $250 per credit hour — the indicators below show whether Alaska Bible College is below that cap.
| Residency | Per-credit charge | Below $250 cap? |
|---|---|---|
| In-state | $230 | |
| Out-of-state | $230 |
Beyond tuition, the Post-9/11 GI Bill® pays a Monthly Housing Allowance (MHA) while you are enrolled. Below, the academic-year housing benefit is set against the estimated living costs at Alaska Bible College.
| Item | Amount |
|---|---|
| Estimated living expenses (room & board, academic year) | $12,320 |
| Post-9/11 monthly housing allowance (MHA) | $2,856/mo |
| Housing benefit (academic year, ~8 months) | $22,848 |
| Estimated surplus in your pocket | $10,528 |
The benefit generally more than covers off-campus living costs here. Your actual MHA depends on your rate of pursuit and the school’s location.
Eligible veterans receive up to $1,000 a year for books and supplies; Alaska Bible College estimates these costs at about $400, so the stipend covers them in full.
