Veterans at New England Institute of Technology Pay About $15,390 Out of Pocket for Tuition

Here is how the Post-9/11 GI Bill® tuition benefit stacks up against the published cost of attending New England Tech. Living-expense and book benefits are addressed in their own sections below.

Item	Amount
Veteran tuition & fees	$35,625
Guaranteed Post-9/11 tuition benefit	$20,235
Tuition out of pocket	$15,390

Private College Tuition Not Fully Covered by GI Bill® Benefits

The Post-9/11 GI Bill® limits the annual tuition benefit to roughly $20,235, so tuition beyond that is out of pocket (or covered by Yellow Ribbon) at New England Tech.

Yellow Ribbon Program Available

Through the Yellow Ribbon Program, New England Institute of Technology and the VA share the cost of tuition above the Post-9/11 cap. Roughly 29 students used Yellow Ribbon benefits here in the latest reporting year.

Seat counts and matching amounts change by program each year; verify the details with the schools military and veteran services team.

Per-Credit Fees and the Active-Duty Tuition Assistance Cap

Active-duty service members using DoD Tuition Assistance are capped at $250 per credit hour. The chart below shows whether the per-credit charge at New England Tech falls under that cap.

Residency	Per-credit charge	Below $250 cap?
In-state	$1,200
Out-of-state	$1,200

Your Living Expenses Are Likely Covered

The Post-9/11 GI Bill® also covers housing through a Monthly Housing Allowance (MHA). Below, the academic-year housing benefit is set against the estimated living costs at New England Tech.

Item	Amount
Estimated living expenses (room & board, academic year)	$7,606
Post-9/11 monthly housing allowance (MHA)	$3,054/mo
Housing benefit (academic year, ~8 months)	$24,432
Estimated surplus in your pocket	$16,826

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.

Your Books and Supplies Are Likely Covered

Eligible veterans receive up to $1,000 a year for books and supplies; New England Tech estimates these costs at about $1,200, leaving about $200 out of pocket.
