by our College Data Analytics TeamHow much of the cost at MSP will the G.I. Bill® cover? GI Bill® benefits are limited and differ by school, so the specifics matter.
MSP 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.
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 MSP.
| Item | Amount |
|---|---|
| Post-9/11 monthly housing allowance (MHA) | $2,364/mo |
| Housing benefit (academic year, ~8 months) | $18,912 |
The MHA helps cover the cost of living while enrolled. Your actual MHA depends on your rate of pursuit and the school’s location.
These figures show the GI Bill® and DoD Tuition Assistance dollars veterans and service members actually used at MSP.
Approximately 2 veterans received Post-9/11 GI Bill® tuition payments of $35,207.
| Benefit | Recipients | Total disbursed | Average / recipient |
|---|---|---|---|
| GI Bill® (all students) | 2 | $29,785 | $14,893 |
| GI Bill® — graduate | 2 | $29,785 | — |
These are federal education benefits — the Post-9/11 GI Bill® for veterans and DoD Tuition Assistance for active-duty members.
