Attend Lake Area Technical Institute as a Veteran and Walk Away With at Least $800

Thanks to the Post-9/11 GI Bill® (assuming you fully qualify), we expect your yearly benefits to exceed your cost to attend Lake Area Technical Institute by at least $800.

Veteran Sticker Price$16,914
Guaranteed Post-9/11 Benefits$17,714
Total In Your Pocket$800

Tuition Fully Covered by GI Bill® Benefits

If you qualify for full benefits, the tuition and fees charged by Lake Area Technical Institute will be fully covered. You will not need to rely on a Yellow Ribbon award or institutional aid to cover these costs.

Veteran Tuition And Fees$5,514
Guaranteed Post-9/11 Benefit*$5,514
Total In Your Pocket-$0
*Note: The tuition benefit is capped at the lessor of the actual tuition charged to you or $20,235.
Remember, some forms of aid such as Pell Grants are awarded in addition to your Post-9/11 GI Bill® benefits so be sure to fill out your FASA forms.

Yellow Ribbon Participation Could Not Be Determined

Unfortunately, it looks like Lake Area Technical Institute does not participate in the Yellow Ribbon Program. If you have tuition and fees charges that are not covered by your Post-9/11 benefits, you will have to pay some tuition out of pocket unless you qualify for other financial aid.

Questions to Ask the Admissions Department

  • Which programs and majors (if any) participate in the Yellow Ribbon Program and how do I apply?

Per Credit Fees and the Active Duty Tuition Assistance Cap

With a per credit charge for in-state students of $121, Lake Area Technical Institute falls below the tuition assistance cap of $250 for active duty personnel.

Below Cap for State Residents?$121 per creditis below tuition assistance cap
Below Cap for Non Residents (Out of State)?$121 per creditis below tuition assistance cap
Almost all public colleges treat full-time non-resident veterans as in-state students. You should check with Lake Area Technical Institute to see if that policy is true for part-time students as well.

Your Living Expenses Likely Covered

After applying eight months of your assumed MHA against what Lake Area Technical Institute thinks your living expenses should be, we see a potential credit in your favor of $1,230. It is possible that your living expenses will be more than covered!

Off Campus Living Expenses$9,970
Post-9/11 Benefit$11,200
Total In Your Pocket$1,230
A MHA of $1,400 is likely the largest benefit paid directly to you.

Your Books and Supplies are Not Fully Covered

Your book stipend of $1000 will not cover what Lake Area Technical Institute estimates your expenses to be ($1,430).

Supplies Expenses$1,430
Post-9/11 Benefit$1,000
Total Out Of Pocket$430
