Veterans Typically Attend Castleton University for no More Than $1,406

Public College Tuition Fully Covered by GI Bill® Benefits

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

Yellow Ribbon Program Participant But With Limitations

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. While Castleton University participates in the Yellow Ribbon Program, it places some limitations on the awards it grants, so your participation in this program is not guaranteed.

The following table may show you how likely you are to have outstanding tuition costs covered by the Yellow Ribbon Program at Castleton University. Remember, contributions from the college will be matched by the VA.

Your Living Expenses May Not Be Fully Covered

After applying eight months of your assumed MHA against what Castleton University thinks your living expenses should be, we see a potential shortfall of $1,406. It is possible that your actual living expenses will be covered if you live more frugally than what the college expects.

Your Books and Supplies are Likely Covered

Your book stipend of $1000 more than covers what Castleton University estimates your expenses to be ($1,000).
