Attend Belmont Abbey College as a Veteran With Little to No Tuition Out of Pocket

The table below compares the guaranteed Post-9/11 tuition benefit to the cost of attending BAC. See the living-expense and book sections below for those benefits.

Private College Tuition Covered in Full by the Post-9/11 GI Bill®

Because tuition is at or below the annual Post-9/11 benefit, the GI Bill® covers it in full at BAC.

Belmont Abbey College Participates in the Yellow Ribbon Program

Belmont Abbey College participates in the Yellow Ribbon Program, which can cover tuition and fees beyond the Post-9/11 GI Bill® cap through matching funds from the school and the VA.

Available Yellow Ribbon seats and maximum contributions differ by program and degree level — check with the veteran services office for current limits.

Per-Credit Fees and the Active-Duty Tuition Assistance Cap

DoD Tuition Assistance pays up to $250 per credit hour for active-duty students; here is how the per-credit charge at BAC compares.

Residency	Per-credit charge	Below $250 cap?
In-state	$0
Out-of-state	$0

Your Living Expenses Are Likely Covered

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 BAC.

The benefit generally more than covers off-campus living costs here. MHA amounts reflect the local housing rate for the school’s area.

Your Books and Supplies Are Likely Covered

With a Post-9/11 book stipend of up to $1,000 per year, the estimated $1,700 in supply costs at BAC, leaving about $700 out of pocket.
