Auburn University G.I. Bill® Tuition Assistance

Will You go to Auburn for Free Thanks to the G.I. Bill®?

Why is the G.I. Bill® Important?

Public College Tuition Fully Covered by GI Bill® Benefits

If you live in Alabama and you qualify for full benefits, your tuition and fees will be covered by your Post-9/11 benefits. If you live outside of Alabama and it has been less than three years since your discharge Auburn University will consider you an in-state student anyways and you will be fully covered.

Veteran Tuition And Fees$11,492
Guaranteed Post-9/11 Benefit*$11,492
Total In Your Pocket-$0
*Note: The tuition benefit is capped at the lessor of the actual tuition charged to you or $20,235.
Remember, some forms of aid such as Pell Grants are awarded in addition to your Post-9/11 GI Bill® benefits so be sure to fill out your FASA forms.

Yellow Ribbon Program

It appears as though Auburn University participates in the Yellow Ribbon Program, but we could not determine if there are restrictions of this participation. If you have tuition and fees charges that are not covered by your Post-9/11 benefits, you may be able to get additional assistance in the form of a Yellow Ribbon Award so check with the college.

Remember, only veterans who qualify for full Post-9/11 benefits are eligible to participate in a Yellow Ribbon program.

Auburn University awarded a total of $180,631 in Yellow Ribbon benefits last year. This was split among 27 veterans for an average award of $6,690 ($13,380 after government matching).

Questions to Ask the Admissions Department

  • Which programs and majors (if any) participate in the Yellow Ribbon Program and how do I apply?

Per Credit Fees and the Active Duty Tuition Assistance Cap

With a per credit charge for in-state students of $409, Auburn University falls above the tuition assistance cap of $250 for active duty personnel.

Below Cap for State Residents?$409 per creditis not below tuition assistance cap
Below Cap for Non Residents (Out of State)?$1,227 per creditis not below tuition assistance cap
Almost all public colleges treat full-time non-resident veterans as in-state students. You should check with Auburn University to see if that policy is true for part-time students as well.

Your Living Expenses May Not Be Fully Covered

After applying eight months of your assumed MHA against what Auburn University thinks your living expenses should be, we see a potential shortfall of $9,312. It is possible that your actual living expenses will be covered if you live more frugally than what the college expects.

Off Campus Living Expenses$19,504
Post-9/11 Benefit$10,192
Total Out Of Pocket$9,312
A MHA of $1,274 is likely the largest benefit paid directly to you.

Your Books and Supplies are Not Fully Covered

Your book stipend of $1000 will not cover what Auburn University estimates your expenses to be ($1,200).

Supplies Expenses$1,200
Post-9/11 Benefit$1,000
Total Out Of Pocket$200
