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

Public Tuition Fully Covered for Veterans

Public-college veterans generally have their entire in-state tuition paid by the Post-9/11 GI Bill® at Florida Poly.

Yellow Ribbon Program Status Not Reported

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 Florida Poly falls under that cap.

Residency	Per-credit charge	Below $250 cap?
In-state	$60
Out-of-state	$595

Housing Allowance Coverage

On top of tuition, the Post-9/11 GI Bill® provides a Monthly Housing Allowance (MHA) for the months you are in school. The table compares the housing benefit to estimated living expenses at Florida Poly.

At this school the academic-year housing benefit exceeds typical living costs, so most full-time students come out ahead. The MHA is based on the school’s ZIP code and is paid at the full-time rate for resident students.

Your Books and Supplies Are Likely Covered

Eligible veterans receive up to $1,000 a year for books and supplies; Florida Poly estimates these costs at about $1,200, leaving about $200 out of pocket.
