by our College Data Analytics TeamWondering what the G.I. Bill® actually covers at AMBS? GI Bill® benefits are limited and differ by school, so the specifics matter.
There is no record that AMBS participates in the Yellow Ribbon Program in the latest federal data. If you need benefits beyond the Post-9/11 cap, ask the schools veteran services office whether any programs participate.
The Post-9/11 GI Bill® also covers housing through a Monthly Housing Allowance (MHA). Below, the academic-year housing benefit is set against the estimated living costs at AMBS.
| Item | Amount |
|---|---|
| Estimated living expenses (room & board, academic year) | $8,020 |
| Post-9/11 monthly housing allowance (MHA) | $1,644/mo |
| Housing benefit (academic year, ~8 months) | $13,152 |
| Estimated surplus in your pocket | $5,132 |
The benefit generally more than covers off-campus living costs here. MHA amounts reflect the local housing rate for the school’s area.
