If you live in South Carolina and you qualify for full benefits, your tuition and fees will be covered by your Post-9/11 benefits.

Guaranteed Post-9/11 Benefit*$12,939
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 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 College of Charleston participates in the Yellow Ribbon Program, it places some limitations on the awards it grants, so your participation in this program is not guaranteed.

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

College of Charleston awarded a total of $8,750 in Yellow Ribbon benefits last year. This was split among 4 veterans for an average award of $2,188 ($4,375 after government matching).

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

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 $522, College of Charleston falls above the tuition assistance cap of $250 for active duty personnel.

Below Cap for State Residents?$522 per creditis not below tuition assistance cap
Below Cap for Non Residents (Out of State)?$1,369 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 College of Charleston to see if that policy is true for part-time students as well.

After applying eight months of your assumed MHA against what College of Charleston thinks your living expenses should be, we see a potential credit in your favor of $143. It is possible that your living expenses will be more than covered!

Off Campus Living Expenses$15,473
Post-9/11 Benefit$15,616
Total In Your Pocket$143
A MHA of $1,952 is likely the largest benefit paid directly to you.
