by our College Data Analytics TeamWill you go to Meadville Lombard Theological School for free thanks to the G.I. Bill®? GI Bill® benefits are limited and differ by school, so the specifics matter.
Federal data does not indicate that Meadville Lombard Theological School currently participates in the Yellow Ribbon Program. 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. Below, the academic-year housing benefit is set against the estimated living costs at Meadville Lombard Theological School.
| Item | Amount |
|---|---|
| Post-9/11 monthly housing allowance (MHA) | $3,225/mo |
| Housing benefit (academic year, ~8 months) | $25,800 |
The Monthly Housing Allowance is paid for the months you are enrolled and is meant to offset off-campus living costs. Your actual MHA depends on your rate of pursuit and the school’s location.
