Expect Roughly $8,375 in Tuition Out of Pocket at Eastern Nazarene College

Here is how the Post-9/11 GI Bill® tuition benefit stacks up against the published cost of attending ENC. See the living-expense and book sections below for those benefits.

Private College Tuition Exceeds the GI Bill® Cap

The Post-9/11 GI Bill® limits the annual tuition benefit to roughly $20,235, so tuition beyond that is out of pocket (or covered by Yellow Ribbon) at ENC.

Yellow Ribbon Program Available

Eastern Nazarene 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.

The exact number of seats and the maximum contribution vary by degree level and program, so confirm the current limits with the schools veteran services office.

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 ENC compares.

Residency	Per-credit charge	Below $250 cap?
In-state	$560
Out-of-state	$560

Your Living Expenses Are Likely Covered

Beyond tuition, the Post-9/11 GI Bill® pays a Monthly Housing Allowance (MHA) while you are enrolled. Here is how that benefit compares to the estimated cost of living at ENC.

At this school the academic-year housing benefit exceeds typical living costs, so most full-time students come out ahead. Your actual MHA depends on your rate of pursuit and the school’s location.

Your Books and Supplies Are Likely Covered

Eligible veterans receive up to $1,000 a year for books and supplies; ENC estimates these costs at about $400, so the stipend covers them in full.

GI Bill® & DoD Benefits Used at Eastern Nazarene College

Beyond the coverage math above, this is how much veteran education-benefit money actually flows to ENC.

Approximately 3 veterans received Post-9/11 GI Bill® tuition payments of $24,945.

GI Bill® dollars are paid on the veterans behalf, while DoD Tuition Assistance supports active-duty service members.
