by our College Data Analytics TeamWondering what the G.I. Bill® actually covers at ETS? GI Bill® benefits are limited and differ by school, so the specifics matter.
ETS is not listed as a Yellow Ribbon participant in current federal reporting. Check directly with the school, since participation can change year to year.
Active-duty service members using DoD Tuition Assistance are capped at $250 per credit hour. The chart below shows whether the per-credit charge at ETS falls under that cap.
| Residency | Per-credit charge | Below $250 cap? |
|---|---|---|
| In-state | $120 |  |
| Out-of-state | $120 | |
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 ETS.
| Item | Amount |
|---|---|
| Post-9/11 monthly housing allowance (MHA) | $2,364/mo |
| Housing benefit (academic year, ~8 months) | $18,912 |
This allowance is paid while you are in school to help with housing and living expenses. MHA amounts reflect the local housing rate for the school’s area.
These figures show the GI Bill® and DoD Tuition Assistance dollars veterans and service members actually used at ETS.
In the latest reporting year, about 1 veterans received Post-9/11 GI Bill® tuition payments of $3,814.
| Benefit | Recipients | Total disbursed | Average / recipient |
|---|---|---|---|
| GI Bill® (all students) | 1 | $9,100 | $9,100 |

| DoD Tuition Assistance (all) | 0 | $0 | — |
| DoD TA — undergraduate | 0 | $0 | — |

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