by our College Data Analytics TeamHow much of the cost at ICOM will the G.I. Bill® cover? The answer depends on the school — benefits are capped and the details vary, so it pays to do your research.
Federal data does not indicate that ICOM currently participates in the Yellow Ribbon Program. Contact the veteran services office to confirm whether any programs offer Yellow Ribbon matching.
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 ICOM.
| Item | Amount |
|---|---|
| Post-9/11 monthly housing allowance (MHA) | $2,139/mo |
| Housing benefit (academic year, ~8 months) | $17,112 |
The MHA helps cover the cost of living while enrolled. MHA amounts reflect the local housing rate for the school’s area.
Beyond the coverage math above, this is how much veteran education-benefit money actually flows to ICOM.
Roughly 2 students drew Post-9/11 GI Bill® tuition benefits totaling $24,310.
| Benefit | Recipients | Total disbursed | Average / recipient |
|---|---|---|---|
| GI Bill® (all students) | 6 | $214,375 | $35,729 |
| GI Bill® — graduate | 6 | $214,375 | — |
GI Bill® benefits follow the veteran; DoD Tuition Assistance is an active-duty benefit paid while serving.
