by our College Data Analytics TeamWill you go to Columbia Theological Seminary for free thanks to the G.I. Bill®? GI Bill® benefits are limited and differ by school, so the specifics matter.
Federal data does not indicate that Columbia Theological Seminary currently participates in the Yellow Ribbon Program. Contact the veteran services office to confirm whether any programs offer Yellow Ribbon matching.
On top of tuition, the Post-9/11 GI Bill® provides a Monthly Housing Allowance (MHA) for the months you are in school. Below, the academic-year housing benefit is set against the estimated living costs at Columbia Theological Seminary.
| Item | Amount |
|---|---|
| Estimated living expenses (room & board, academic year) | $5,730 |
| Post-9/11 monthly housing allowance (MHA) | $2,490/mo |
| Housing benefit (academic year, ~8 months) | $19,920 |
| Estimated surplus in your pocket | $14,190 |
The benefit generally more than covers off-campus living costs here. MHA amounts reflect the local housing rate for the school’s area.
