Veterans Typically Attend William & Mary for no More Than $4,582

If you qualify for full benefits under the Post-9/11 GI Bill® we estimate that your yearly out of pocket cost to attend William & Mary should not be more than $4,582.

Public College Tuition Fully Covered by GI Bill® Benefits

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

Veteran Tuition And Fees$22,922
Guaranteed Post-9/11 Benefit*$20,235
Total Out Of Pocket$2,687
*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 William & Mary 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.

William & Mary awarded a total of $9,227 in Yellow Ribbon benefits last year. This was split among 6 veterans for an average award of $1,538 ($3,076 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 William & Mary. 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 $425, William & Mary falls above the tuition assistance cap of $250 for active duty personnel.

Below Cap for State Residents?$425 per creditis not below tuition assistance cap
Below Cap for Non Residents (Out of State)?$1,278 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 William & Mary 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 William & Mary thinks your living expenses should be, we see a potential shortfall of $1,895. 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$14,967
Post-9/11 Benefit$13,072
Total Out Of Pocket$1,895
A MHA of $1,634 is likely the largest benefit paid directly to you.

Your Books and Supplies are Likely Covered

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

Supplies Expenses$1,000
Post-9/11 Benefit$1,000
Total In Your Pocket-$0
