by our College Data Analytics TeamHow much of the cost at Lancaster Theological Seminary will the G.I. Bill® cover? Coverage is not unlimited and varies school to school, so the fine print is worth checking.
Lancaster Theological Seminary is not listed as a Yellow Ribbon participant in current federal reporting. If you need benefits beyond the Post-9/11 cap, ask the schools veteran services office whether any programs participate.
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 Lancaster Theological Seminary.
| Item | Amount |
|---|---|
| Estimated living expenses (room & board, academic year) | $4,895 |
| Post-9/11 monthly housing allowance (MHA) | $2,133/mo |
| Housing benefit (academic year, ~8 months) | $17,064 |
| Estimated surplus in your pocket | $12,169 |
For most full-time students the housing allowance covers the cost of living off campus, with money left over. The MHA is based on the school’s ZIP code and is paid at the full-time rate for resident students.
This is the real volume of GI Bill® and military tuition benefits paid out at Lancaster Theological Seminary.
