How much of the cost at American Medical Academy will the G.I. Bill® cover? The answer depends on the school — benefits are capped and the details vary, so it pays to do your research.
Here is how the Post-9/11 GI Bill® tuition benefit stacks up against the published cost of attending American Medical Academy. Housing and book benefits are covered separately below.
| Item | Amount |
|---|---|
| Veteran tuition & fees | $2,250 |
| Guaranteed Post-9/11 tuition benefit | $2,250 |
| Tuition out of pocket | $0 |
Tuition and fees here fall within the annual Post-9/11 GI Bill® benefit, so eligible veterans typically owe nothing toward tuition at American Medical Academy.
There is no record that American Medical Academy participates in the Yellow Ribbon Program in the latest federal data. Contact the veteran services office to confirm whether any programs offer Yellow Ribbon matching.
On top of tuition, the Post-9/11 GI Bill® provides a Monthly Housing Allowance (MHA) for the months you are in school. Here is how that benefit compares to the estimated cost of living at American Medical Academy.
| Item | Amount |
|---|---|
| Post-9/11 monthly housing allowance (MHA) | $3,612/mo |
| Housing benefit (academic year, ~8 months) | $28,896 |
This allowance is paid while you are in school to help with housing and living expenses. 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; American Medical Academy estimates these costs at about $570, so the stipend covers them in full.
Beyond the coverage math above, this is how much veteran education-benefit money actually flows to American Medical Academy.
Approximately 27 students drew Post-9/11 GI Bill® tuition benefits totaling $191,563.
| Benefit | Recipients | Total disbursed | Average / recipient |
|---|---|---|---|
| GI Bill® (all students) | 27 | $153,030 | $5,668 |
| GI Bill® — undergraduate | 27 | $153,030 | — |
These are federal education benefits — the Post-9/11 GI Bill® for veterans and DoD Tuition Assistance for active-duty members.
