Private Tuition Above the Post-9/11 Benefit Cap

Yellow Ribbon Participation Unconfirmed

Housing Allowance Coverage

The Post-9/11 GI Bill® also covers housing through a Monthly Housing Allowance (MHA). Here is how that benefit compares to the estimated cost of living at Los Angeles Academy of Figurative Art.

Item	Amount
Estimated living expenses (room & board, academic year)	$12,000
Post-9/11 monthly housing allowance (MHA)	$3,864/mo
Housing benefit (academic year, ~8 months)	$30,912
Estimated surplus in your pocket	$18,912

At this school the academic-year housing benefit exceeds typical living costs, so most full-time students come out ahead. Your actual MHA depends on your rate of pursuit and the school’s location.
